Gary Farrell Russian River Selection Pinot Noir · 2022
Gary Farrell blends its Russian River Selection from vineyards across the valley, bringing different climates and site characters into one Pinot Noir. The 2022 opens with Luxardo cherry, rose petal, fresh fennel, dark berry preserve and a hint of savory earth.
On the palate, sour cherry, blood orange, wild raspberry and tangy tamarind meet fine-grained tannins and firm acidity. Its full-bodied texture and long, spicy finish make this a bottle to bring to a dinner centered on roast poultry or mushrooms.

The 2022 Russian River Selection Pinot Noir has seductive aromas of Luxardo cherries intertwined with rose petals, fresh fennel, dark berry preserves, and a hint of savory earth. The youthful yet complex palate offers juicy flavors of sour cherries, blood orange, wild raspberries and with a dollop of tangy tamarind. Fine-grained tannins are balanced by firm acidity, creating a full-bodied texture, lending to an incredibly long, spicy finish.

93 Points Wine Enthusiast:
Relatively light, dry and tangy, this medium-bodied wine has a lean elegance. Tart cherries, raspberries, redwood forest and black pepper flavors are buoyed by good acidity and light tannins. The wine is excellent in a racy, trim style.
