For less than half the price of the single-vineyard Hartford Court Pinot's, you can find this Russian River appellation wine from the same maker. While not in the stratosphere as some of the single-vineyard wines can sometimes be, this is a serious, straight-ahead, pure, flavorful Pinot Noir that delivers a lot of bang for the buck. Lovely, rich Pinot fruit leaning towards red raspberry and cherry, with a touch of floral notes and a solid core of charcoal and herbal oils. Satisfying richness in the texture and finish. - HK 2020-08-16
