2009 DuMOL ryan Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
14.2% alc., 776
cases, $80. Sourced from the Dutton-Widdoes and Abbott vineyards
located on the western edge of the Russian River Valley.
·
Moderate
reddish-purple hue in the glass. Very ripe fruit profile emerges over time
in the glass featuring dark red berries and cherries along with a forest
floor tone. A fat, silken, sweet core of vivid dark red fruit makes an
impression on the mid palate and persists on the fresh, crisp finish that displays
a cut of citrus. Beautifully balanced with soft, sleek tannins. The wine pushes
the ripeness envelope but never crosses over. Fabulous the next day with
remarkable intensity of flavor from a previously opened and re-corked bottle.
