Lindstrom Pinot Noir Dutton Ranch 2012
Seamlessly blends the elegance of Russian River with the power of Napa winemaker Celia Welch. The bouquet showcases rich fruit aromas of dark cherry and Russian River’s famous earthy notes. Hints of cinnamon and pepper appear on the periphery. Forward at the front of the palate, this wine offers tons of fresh cherry and raspberry with an opulent and mouthwatering texture. The finish is delicate, soft and warm with lingering cherry and baking spices. Delicious now, it will continue to drink well for the next 5 years.
