V. Sattui Winery, Russian River Valley (Sonoma County, California) Pinot Noir 2019

Feb 2, 2021

By Rich Cook

 This bottling is always a serious performer for V. Sattui, and the 2019 vintage kicks things up a notch with some grip added to rich black cherry, fall spice and citrus zest flavors that linger long in mouthwatering fashion.  I’ll be “zooming” with winemaker Brooks Painter in a couple weeks, and wines like this remind me what a pleasure it is to taste with him.  Beautiful!  A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
