2011 Bucher Vineyard Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley, CA, $40 (S) – Rating 92
Hard to believe this is the initial winemaking effort from this renown vineyard used by many respected Pinot producers. Aromas of blueberry with hints of cinnamon and earthiness. Rich flavors red cherry, ripe strawberry and blueberry with subtle notes of terroir, brown and cinnamon spice. Soft on the palate with balanced acidity. A touch of leather and espresso in the finish.
