2015 Siduri Bellflower Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

14.2% alc., 192 cases, $55, screwcap. · Dark garnet color in the glass. Shy nose initially, slowly unfolding to reveal aromas of black cherry, blackberry, clove, smoke and cigar box. A palate saturating flood of sweet blackberry and boysenberry fruits with hints of spice and graphite give notice. The tannins are ripe and balanced, oak plays in the background, and there is some finishing intensity. A hedonistic display of RRV fruit. Score: 90. Reviewed May 7, 2017
