2011 Vino Vargas Rio Ruso Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
14.1% alc., $45.
Rio Ruso is Spanish for Russian River. Aged in 30% new French oak barrels.
Winemaker Pedro Vargas.
·
Medium reddish-purple color in the glass. Aromas of
black cherry and ripe strawberry with a slight roasted quality. Fruit flavors of
black cherry and blackberry push the ripeness envelope, but are quite tasty. A
hint of cola and spice add interest. Nicely crafted and very approachable with
mild fine grain tannins.
Score: 88.
