Siduri Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2017 Review
Pinot Noir from this area is more muscular than other examples of the variety. They have more lush viscosity, chewiness and are also often quite expensive. This Russian River Valley Pinot, however, keeps that power and price in check while coaxing out what elegance can be gained from this fog-influenced AVA with deep, prominent, sour cherry fruit and subtle hints of cinnamon teasing a soft vanilla note with an underlying layer of earth.
