The 2012 vintage afforded us tremendous opportunity to score awesome Pinot values all over the state of CA – a fantastic, picture-perfect vintage combined with huge quantities of amazing fruit. This particular Lot is sourced from a famed grower with simply too much fruit above their contracts. We got the grapes for a song and are passing this amazing value along to you. 5 months in 25% new French oak is all this wine needed, given the raucous, ripe fruit and soft tannins that characterized the vintage.

Exceptional Value for Russian River Pinot
Lot 403 is an exceptional Russian River Pinot - exactly what you would expect from the area. And for the price, it simply cannot be beat.

drink up!
light/medium bodied, well balanced juice with supple, classic flavors of cherries and raspberries. not as compelling as the (2013) 480 russian river lots, but they're all gone! drinking well now.

Great with Salmon
When you get a under $20.00 PN from Russian River I really get excited. We had this wine with salmon last week and it held up with the strong fish. Very good but not great wine.

Mediocre
I was disappointed in this RRV Pinot. I found it light with very little finish. I let it breath in a decanter for 60 minutes but it never really settled. Lot 483 is well worth the extra money.
