Fort Ross winemaker Jeff Pisoni opts for a light, bright style here, one that is focused on strawberry and cherry fruit, with moderate oak spice, zippy acidity and a spicy finish push. This Pinot Noir could use a little time to fully integrate the spice components, so decant it well if you decide to enjoy it near term.
