Description:
Silken. Sophisticated. Sonoma Elegance in a Glass.
Rodney Strong Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is a beautifully expressive wine that showcases the cool-climate finesse and fog-kissed terroir of one of California’s premier Pinot Noir regions. Crafted with grapes sourced from estate and sustainably farmed vineyards, this wine is both nuanced and approachable.

The nose reveals fragrant aromas of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and rose petal, interwoven with subtle notes of baking spice, vanilla, and forest floor. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and supple, with layers of red berry fruit, cola, and soft oak, supported by silky tannins and refreshing acidity. The finish is long and graceful, leaving hints of cedar and spice.

Pairing Suggestions:
A versatile partner to roast duck, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon, or herbed pork tenderloin. Also excellent with charcuterie, soft cheeses, or seasonal vegetable dishes.
