The Amici Pinot Noir Russian River Valley opens with aromas of cranberry, cherry pie, sassafras, and forest floor. Layers of complexity follow on the palate, showcasing vibrant notes of blackberry and raspberry along with toasty oak and silky tannins that flow through the smooth, lengthy finish.

93points - James Suckling
A classic Russian River wine that dials back the ripeness and richness a bit for great balance and an appetizing texture. Dark cherries, red cherries, then some black tea, orange peel and cinnamon notes for complexity. Aged in 33% new French barrels using a dash of whole clusters. Moderate tannins and a full body. Drink now or hold.
