Thomas George Estates, Russian River Valley (Sonoma County, California) Pinot Noir 2008

Jul 20, 2011

By W. Blake Gray

 This wine opens with cranberry and pomegranate fruit that segues into chunky-peel orange marmalade on the finish.  It’s medium-bodied with some tannin on the back end.  It tastes of fruit sweetness, but there’s no residual sugar; the fruit is just that expressive.
