RUSSIAN RIVER SELECTION PINOT NOIR 2019 Russian River Valley, Sonoma County |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
GARY FARRELL |
Sonoma’s Russian River Valley is famous for its refined Pinot Noir and this 2019 from Gary Farrell is one of them. It has a medium-deep red colour. The very attractive, wild rose, fresh plum-cherry purée nose provides us with a refined rendition how this grape behaves in a truly privileged New World terroir. Dry, medium bodied, well balanced and elegant, the rose-tinged, ripe plum, red and black cherry fruit flavours have some bright raspberry notes followed up by a lingering, gently cedary, minerally finish. This classy 100% Pinot Noir is ready to drink and a pleasure on the palate. It was aged 10 months on its primary lees in French oak (30% new) and has 13.9% alcohol, 2 g/L residual sugar, 6.6 g/L total acidity with lot number WS2020-03-22 on the lower part of the glass bottle. NEW in Vintages. |

TASTING NOTE: Aromas of wild cherry, plum, crushed stone and ocean breeze. Medium-bodied with integrated tannins. An array of red fruit and fresh, colored flowers fills the palate. Very flavorful and satisfying. Bright acidity and a mineral edge keep the palate driven and dynamic. Lingering finish. Lovely. Drink or hold. Score - 95 (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 9, 2022) |
