2019 Pedroncelli Pinot Noir Russian River Valley

 


Imaging 95 years of growing grapes and producing wines. How many berries have been harvested or barrels of juice have been fermented and aged? Think over those years the number of bottles and cases of wine that have been sold and consumed at family gatherings, weddings, relaxing by a fire or a nice dinner. I wonder if Julie or Ed would guess the number of bottles produced over the years (no Ed a lot was already used by me)?

Happy 95 years to all the Pedroncelli's! They continue to produce food friendly and stand alone wines which do not break the pocket book, yet deliver a luxurious mouth feel as if you are drinking $100 bottles. Consistent quality vintage after vintage. 

Tonight, we opened the 2019 Pinot Noir Signature Selection. On the nose crushed cranberries and cherries with cinnamon spice and a kiss of toasted oak. The mouth is full of ripe juicy cherry and strawberry, cola and finishes with a dusting of warm barrel spice. One of if not my favorite pinot noir. 

Looking for a great opportunity to taste their food and wine together, book your place at their Sip & Savor Dinner on August 20th. Great looking menu and awesome wines. Why stop there and equally delicious stop by the tasting room for a taste, purchase and sign up for the wine club. Sounds like the perfect pairing.


Cheers
