Wine Details
Pours a perfectly pale ruby in the glass. A very expressive nose opens with cherry, incense, and earthy mushroom kissed by cinnamon and fresh-turned soil. The palate is strikingly well balanced, with deftly tuned acidity interwoven with additional cherry, earth, and soft tannins. A dry, uplifted strawberry umami takes the forefront for an elegant, medium-length finish.

The Russian River AVA has been the darling of critics for what feels like forever, and its estates boast a never-ending list of top ratings and gold medals galore. Anchored by rare sandy loam “Goldridge” soils formed by an ancient sandstone seabed, the region’s vineyards are bathed in a cool coastal climate perfect for growing Pinot.
Lot 747 is the 2019 offering from the same producer from whom we sourced Lot 729 2018 RRV Pinot (Gold Medal & 92 pts, Sommelier Challenge; Gold Medal, SF International Wine Competition), and is phenomenal bang-for-your-buck any way you slice it.

Well balanced
Very well balanced and subtle; this has a softness that I don't usually encounter in Pinots. Nothing at all aggressive; totally smooth and very soft tannins. Russian River seems to produce consistently excellent Pinots, and this one is outstanding.

Love it
I purchase this pinot with every order! It's a favorite here in this house, and is truly a remarkable deal at this price. It's a perfect wine to sip on during dinner and by the fire. I love it, and will continue to have a supply at all times!

Enhances turkey and pork
We paired this with a grilled turkey and it was exquisite; what a nice balance and complement of flavors. One of our very favorite Pinots among the CH lineup. Goes nicely with pork tenderloin too.

Excellent
I am starting to appreciate Pinot Noirs form the Russian River Valley more and more. This is a beautiful wine, even though it is still quite young. It is a medium-bodied red, cherry aroma with mild tannins. It goes well with food and holds up just by itself. I dropped two bottles today and almost cried.
