2012 Papapietro Perry 777 Clones Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

14.5% alc., 625 cases, $72. Ben calls this his “Vegas wine,” because of the triple 7 designation. Sourced from five Russian River Valley vineyards. · Moderately light cherry red color in the glass. A very harmonious wine with aromas and flavors of cherry, cranberry, raspberry and sandalwood. Well-crafted, with juicy acidity, balanced supple tannins, and generous length on the lingering finish.
