Review: MacRostie 2018 Klopp Ranch Pinot Noir Russian River Valley ($58)

 

There were only 16 barrels produced of this single-vineyard offering from the cool Klopp Ranch site planted on Goldridge sandy loam soils. I love the precision of this Russian River bottling. It's very focused with blackberry, blackberry seed, raspberry, and conifer forest notes. Those loamy soils give it a great plushness on the palate and the finish goes on and on. It's just a beautifully made wine, and it's well worth the price. (96 Points)
