2012 Estate Pinot Noir, Rochioli Winery, Russian River Valley
The majority of Tom’s Pinot Noir comes from the Sweetwater vineyard; the highest elevation site which provides the wine’s freshness and elegance. This is a serious Pinot for the price and epitomises the success in planting the grape variety in this cool climate. Expressive and seductive fruit with core vibrant berries, hints of spice and a floral lift, the gentle texture seems to fade beautifully with the silky, balanced finish.
