2012 D&L Carinalli Vineyards Estate Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
15.0% alc., $25. Family owned
vineyard and winery.
·
Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. Aromas of cherry, strawberry, oak spice and
a hint of wintergreen. A very serviceable wine with mid weight flavors of black cherry and ripe strawberry with a
compliment of toasty oak in the background. The fine grain tannins are modest in proportion and the finish has
a little length.
Score: 87.
