Migration, Russian River Valley (Sonoma County, California) Pinot Noir 2016

Dec 17, 2019

By Robert Whitley

 The first rule of winemaking is “use the best grapes money can buy.”   After that, the rest is relatively easy.   Migration follows that path to perfection, producing another stellar vintage from the legendary Dutton Ranch in the Russian River Valley.  The results are predictable.  This is a powerhouse Pinot, richly layered and beautifully structured.  Showing impressive depth and complexity, with notes of raspberry and dark cherry and a gentle touch of wood spice.
