Tasting notes
The 2017 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley offers a more rounded, supple, sexy style that's loaded with notions of black raspberries, spiced currants, dried flowers, and loamy soil. It's rounded, medium to full-bodied, seamless, and loaded with charm.

The 2017 Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) is a very pretty, lifted wine that shows a decidedly restrained, elegant side of the Russian River Valley in its mid-weight, laid back feel. Crushed flowers, spice and sweet red berry fruit are pushed forward in this delicate, inviting Pinot from Three Sticks. I very much like the precision here. This is a terrific appellation-level Pinot.
The 2017 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley has a pale to medium ruby-purple color and nose of cranberry sauce, blueberries and wild blackberries with hints of cracked pepper, laurel and dried flowers. Light to medium-bodied, it's softly fruited in the mouth with grainy tannins and just enough acidity on the finish. 378 cases produced.
