2010 Amber Ridge Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir Barrel Sample
85% Pommard, 15% 115.
Native fermentation, 25 day maceration.
·
Moderately deep reddish-purple color in the glass. Fruity nose
displaying aromas of plums and raspberries. A softly textured, full-bodied wine that has a dense core of ripe
fruit but currently lacks nuance. Should take on more personality after it is bottled.
