Note di degustazione
There are four Pinot offerings from the Russian River, including the 2012 Pinot Noir Rochioli Riverblock Vineyard. This wine offers blueberry, boysenberry and wet rock-like characteristics, medium body, nicely integrated acidity, pure blue and red fruits, and an attractive mouthfeel as well as finish. Moderately endowed and medium-bodied, it should drink well for a decade. Tel. (707) 433-6425

Vivid ruby-red. Pungent aromas and flavors of black raspberry, mulberry, anise and candied rose are accented by a minerally topnote. Sweet, dense and focused, offering intense red and dark berry flavors and a hint of smoked meat. Becomes sweeter and broader with air, picking up a spicecake nuance that carries through a strikingly long, gently tannic finish. Very complex already but history suggests that this pinot will be shutting down soon, after which it should be forgotten about for at least another six years or so.
