J Vineyards & Winery Russian River Pinot Noir 2006
Pinot Noir
from Russian River, California
winemaker's notes:
The 2006 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir exhibits the full potential of our vineyards and the unique terroir of our region. Aromas of bright red cherries radiate, followed by subtle notes of damp earth, mushrooms, liquorish and spices. A fat entry and broad mouthfeel engulf the palate with flavors of cherries, raspberries, strawberries, and a lingering finish of cola and oak. This striking Pinot Noir stands up beautifully with Lamb Shish Kebabs on your summer grill.
J's 2006 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is an elegant composition of wines made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes sourced from our Estate Vineyards as well as from selected growers in the Russian River Valley appellation.
"Light cherry and cinnamon aromas with a hint of citrus peel. Delicate cherry, strawberry and new oak flavors offer a core of brown spice and fine-grain tannins. A charming, well-made Pinot with a staircase of flavors that continue to climb in the finish."
