Martinelli Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2010

Mature Russian River Pinot hits sweet spot between power and elegance.

Thirteen years have worked magic here. Dark berry aromatics meld with forest floor earthiness. Rich blackberry and plum core carries cocoa undertones. Licorice notes emerge mid-palate, adding complexity without overwhelming. Silky texture belies the wine's intensity. Forest floor elements ground the fruit perfectly. Long finish reveals layers of spice and mineral. This vintage proves Russian River Valley's aging potential. Drinking beautifully now but has more years ahead.

🍷 You want proof that Russian River Valley Pinot can age gracefully like Burgundy.
