2013 Rivers-Marie Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

14.1% alc., $25. · Moderately dark reddish purple color in the glass. Aromatically pleasing with scents of dark fruits, sous-bois and complimentary oak. Rich and sappy flavors of blackberry, cassis and pomegranate with a touch of spice. A generous, juicy wine without subtlety, but with suave tannins, easy approachability and a tenacious finish. Score: 89. Reviewed May 14, 2015
