Tasting Panel, 93 Points
"Best described as a most expressive red from the Middle Reach neighbor- hood, this wine is like a graceful dancer in a dramatic scene. pirouetting atop a bed of roses to ginger and beet before taking a bow with cranberry. On the mid palate, earthy mushroom takes a stand with a hint of sassafras and white pepper."
James Suckling, 92 Points
"A savory and mossy pinot noir with racy berries, licorice and ash. Some coca cola, too. This is deep and decadent with some dried roses and wet earth on the palate and some darker fruit and herbs in the lengthy finish. Drink or hold."
Wine Spectator, 91 Points
"This has broadened out, offering an enticing wave of mulled blood orange and mulberry fruit flavors infused with red tea, dried anise, menthol and savory notes. Features lingering tension on the finish, despite the mature profile. Drink now through 2024. Tasted twice, with consistent notes."
Winemaker Notes:
"The Trione 2018 Russian River Ranch Pinot Noir is an excellent example of the variety. While Burgundian in origin, the Trione Pinot shows its Russian River boldness and perfect fruit expression. A great complexity of earthiness, fruit forwardness, and elemental boldness, this wine is very expressive. It lingers on the palate for a smooth, light to medium bodied mouthfeel."
Alcohol: 14.6%
