Kistler Pinot Noir Russian River Valley Cuvée Natalie Silver Belt Vineyard 2019
$100
Perky acidity leads the way, pulling a mix of lightly mulled red and black cherry and raspberry fruit flavors along, while light cinnamon, sandalwood and dried anise notes peek in. This has range and length, just needs a touch of cellaring to settle in. Best from 2023 through 2029. 900 cases made.

Primary Grape
Pinot Noir
This popular red grape originated in Burgundy but has spread across the New World. Like its white Burgundian counterpart Chardonnay, Pinot Noir is early-budding, early-ripening and thin-skinned. The sites where it tends to thrive can experience tough growing conditions, which lead to more rigorous fruit selection and lower yields. This is one of the reasons that high-quality Pinot Noir often carries a higher price tag than other wines.
