3 | Wine | Pinot Noir, Mendocino County

"This elegant and medium-bodied wine has delicate aromas of violet and rose petals, complex flavors and long silky textures, with layers of strawberry and raspberry leading into a long refined finish."

"Begins with inviting aromas of raspberry puree and fresh oatmeal cookies. The entry offers an intriguing hint of smoke and peppercorns that carry though to a mid-palate filled with silky tannins and cherry and raspberry flavors. On the finish, oak-inspired overtones of coffee and baking spice mingle with leather and fruit bringing this wine to a long, satisfying conclusion."

"The 2010 Pinot Noir Savoy is another gorgeous, beautifully expressive wine. This is the most layered, complete and nuanced of the 2010 Pinots from Radio-Coteau. There is a silkiness to the tannin that elevates the Savoy. This is all subtlety and class. Freshly cut flowers, rose petals, exotic spices and ripe raspberries wrap around the soft, creamy finish. I can’t wait to taste this once it is in bottle."

"A brilliant color of red rose petals and a nose of wild strawberries, raspberries, roses, violets and a hint of bay leaf. The palate explodes with fresh ripe berries and floral notes, and progresses to a velvety midpalate followed by a long finish that echoes with the wild brambly fruit found in the nose."
