2007 RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY PINOT NOIR ROSÉ


Tasting Notes
"Pinot Noir’s expression as a Rosé is succulent and vibrant. This release fills the glass with aromas of fresh strawberries, orange zest and watermelon. Juicy citrus and strawberry flavors stand out in the mouth, balanced by a beautiful, bright acidity. A popular warm weather wine in southern Europe, serve this Rosé well chilled on its own or with a mild cheese and fresh fruit plate." - Melissa Stackhouse, La Crema Winemaker

The Place: Russian River Valley
Pinot Noir has a temperamental and fragile nature that makes it a challenge from vine to bottle. A notorious failure in many places, Pinot Noir only reveals its brilliance in tiny, specific cool-climate pockets of the world. Russian River Valley is one of them. Cool coastal fog rolls over the vineyards each day, and the grapes ripen at a leisurely pace in the moderate climate. Concentrated, small berries literally burst with vibrant flavors and bright acidity, ideal for crafting a fresh, juicy Rosé wine.
