George Menini Estate Russian River Valley Pinot Noir•2023

Intensity defines the 2023 Paul Hobbs George Menini Estate Pinot Noir: saturated black and blue fruits pulse through the wine, framed by savory spice, tea-like complexity and a subtle floral top note. The palate is sleek yet powerful, with vibrant acidity and ultra-fine tannins giving terrific drive and length to its waves of dark cherry, blackberry and gentle mocha. This is a seriously structured, high-energy Russian River Pinot built for the long haul, yet already striking in its purity and detail.
