2019 Ram's Gate Pinot Noir Bush Crispo Vineyard

The darker ruby-hued 2019 Pinot Noir Bush Cripso Vineyard is another terrific Russian River Pinot Noir, revealing a darker, earthy core of mulberry and red plum fruit as well as notes of sassafras, violets, and candied orange. It's more lifted and vibrant on the palate, and while solid, the overall balance and mouthfeel are less seamless and integrated than some of the other releases here.
