Classic Russian River elegance wrapped in silk and spice.
Raspberry liqueur greets immediately. Rose petals bloom mid-palate. Cedar backbone provides structure without overwhelming delicate fruit. White pepper tingles through lengthy finish. Mineral spine runs deepโclassic cool-climate character. Tannins refined, silky. This 2013 hits prime drinking now but holds another decade easily. Rochioli delivers textbook Pinot precision. Expensive but earned.
