Kistler Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2014

$74.99

Very Limited Kistler Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir.  94 Points Antionio Galoni (Vinous): "Deceptively medium in body, the 2014 Pinot Noir Kistler Vineyard packs a real punch. Succulent red cherry, rose petal, lavender and violet are all pushed forward, but it is the wine's inner sweetness and aromatics that stand out. Today, the KV comes across as very restrained, with bright acids and fabulous balance. A rush of sweet red cherry, blueberry and pomegranate leave a lasting impression. The 2014 is going to need a bit of time in bottle to unwind, but it is super."

Great new world Pinot. Quick decant at the restaurant to give it some air and warm it up slightly and it was good to go. The nose was very aromatic with cranberry, cherries, earth and dried herbs. Palate was rich for a Pinot, with flavors of raspberry and plum. Strong acidity on the finish.

We had the 2012 Vintage on 12/16-17/21. This is a classic RRV PN. Cherry and cinnamon on the bouquet. Candied apples, cherry and a touch of oak on the palate. Medium bodied, fruit forward with a full mouth feel. Very good. Different but better than the 2014.

We had the 2014 Vintage on 12/11-12/2021 as part of a horizontal tasting. There were tastes of black cherry, blackberry, cola and minerality. This had a dustiness that the other three did not. More Burgundian? Maybe.

Pretty solid balance with a little sweet but tangy flavor. Good finish.

Big thumbs up. Tart cherries, macerated strawberries, but not overly sweet at all. Very well balanced with a really pleasant nose and finish.
