2014 Siduri Ewald Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

14.1% alc., 236 cases, $50. Release May 1, 2016. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. Deep aroma of black cherry is highlighted by scents of smoke, charcoal, shredded bark and peppery spice. Quite silky in the mouth, with mid weight plus flavors of black cherry and black raspberry with hints of spice and toast, backed by modest tannins. I wish the wine had slightly less oak influence, but is otherwise very solid. Score: 89. Reviewed April 22, 2016
