Brilliant 2012 showing dark cherry richness with earthy Russian River complexity.
Gorgeous Bing cherry concentration opens with rose petal aromatics. Baking spices weave through the mid-palateโcinnamon, nutmeg adding warmth. Cola undertones provide fascinating depth. Forest floor mushroom notes emerge, classic Russian River terroir expression. Silky tannins frame the fruit perfectly. Long, spiced finish. This 2012 hits its stride now. Drink through 2026 while fruit remains vibrant yet earthy complexity deepens.
๐ท You want sophisticated Pinot that bridges Burgundy elegance with California fruit power.
Pairs with: Duck breast with cherry gastrique, Mushroom risotto, Herb-crusted lamb, Aged gruyere
