The 2010 RRV is Merry’s "now" pinot noir, with bright red=fruited aromas, a touch of lightness and elegance on the palate, and integrated tannins that provide a bit of grip without astringency. There is a hint of damp earth and a long, lingering finish that is sure to please even the most demanding of pinot lovers.
