The Frei Brothers 2013 reserve shows the depth and richness that is typical of Russian River pinot, with impressive intensity of flavor without being heavy or losing the nuance of elegance that is essential to top-notch pinot. This vintage offers layered red- and black-fruit complexity, with silky tannins and a long, seductive finish. A platinum award-winner at the 2016 Critics Challenge International Wine and Spirits Competition.
