2014 Loring Wine Company Keefer Ranch Vineyard Green Valley of Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

14.6% alc., pH 3.64, 400 cases, $50. Released September 2015. · Moderately light reddish purple color in the glass. Red fruits drive this wine which is typical of this cool-sited vineyard. Flavors of iced cherry and strawberry are framed by juicy acidity and suave tannins. The wine’s velvety mouthfeel is very seductive. More flavor intensity arrives over time in the glass, including more generosity on the oak infused cherry scented finish. Wines from this special vineyard always captivate me. Score: 91.
