Rodney Strong Russian River Pinot Noir 2013
Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesRodney Strong was among the first to plant pinot noir in the Russian River Valley back in 1968. The original River East Vineyard planted over alluvial clay-loam soils (next to the winery in Healdsburg) remains a core contributor to the estate vineyard bottling. The beautiful 2013 dry, with a frost-free spring, a warm summer with no heat spikes and a warm, rain-free autumn spelled perfection in the Russian River. Classic cherry aromas with floral notes mingle in the glass. More of the same with brown spices and flecks of raspberry and cranberries freshen the palate and lightly briary finish. Wee suggest grilled salmon steaks, roasted chicken or roasted pork loin. Hold or drink through 2020.
