Rodney Strong Russian River Valley Pinot Noir Liqueur the warmth of the tongueThe Estate Russian River Valley Pinot Noir has lovely aromas of red fruit, floral, and earth. With a soft and silky texture, on the palate cherry, cranberry, and baking spice characteristics shine through with balance, acidity, and a nice lingering finish. This medium bodied wine was aged for 15 months in small French oak barrels, which added a hint of toasty vanilla and spice complexity. Pairs with Pork.
