Rodney Strong Russian River Pinot Noir Estate Vineyards 2009
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesVanilla, caramel, smoky, espresso, Bing cherry jam, cologne, compost, herbal aromas. Soft, round, fresh palate with good smooth texture. Smoky, coffee, vanilla, resin, licorice, green tea, olive, tobacco leaf, herbal, raspberry jam, Bing cherry flavours. Good fruit and acidity but a bit too reliant on smoky oak and vanilla. A slight oak diet would up the ante.Tasted: 30 January 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $28.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Mark Anthony Brands |
