Rare release of Russian River Valley's most exclusive Pinot Noirs. Hurry. The Rochioli 2015 Pinot Noir Estate is fleshy, seductive and quite pretty. Freshly cut flowers, dark red cherries, mint and anise are nicely balanced. A vinous, inviting Pinot, best suited for drinking over the next few years. There is a tremendous amount of early appeal here."

We had the 2015 Vintage on 7/9-10/23. This is a classic RRV PN. Tastes of black cherry, cola, sassafras, cinnamon. Medium bodied and well balanced. I have rated this higher previously. This is good but not great.

We had the 2015 Vintage on 5/17/20. Cherry and rose petals on the bouquet. Black cherry, raspberry and oak on the palate. Well balanced, full bodied. Terrific!

Classic Pinot from one of my fav producers. Loads of black raspberry and cherry with a mix of spice. This wine benefits from the floral notes and nuances. 2015 Drinking nicely.
