Cattleya Description
Truly exploding from the glass with remarkable aromatic purity of red cherry, strawberry, spiced plum, and hints of delicate rose petal, this Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley is luscious and expansive as it coats the palate. A rich melange of juicy red berries, dominated by raspberries blended with violets, swirls with delicate notes of clove, cocoa and vanilla bean adding complexity, while waves of silky tannin and fresh acidity contribute to a stunning finish. 215 cases produced.

A ripe ruby hue, the 2022 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley comes from The Wedding Block Vineyard, owned by the Martinelli family and located right outside the winery. The nose is spicy with notes of sassafras, ripe cherries, wild herbs, peppery spices, and woodsy earth. Medium to full-bodied, it's generous and supple on the palate, with a ripe, approachable feel that never feels heavy. It has good length and a lot of classic charm.
