ACCOLADES

• Owen Bargreen (93 Points)

"The 2019 ‘Il Rubino’ comes from several sites in the North Coast AVA. Stored in 45% new French oak, this offers very pretty red rose petals with orange zest and suggestions of cardamom on the nose. Very smooth and soft on the mouth, this is generous, downright delicious red fruit-driven wine that is best consumed now and over the next eight years. Drink 2022-2032."

• Wine Enthusiast Magazine (91 Points)

"Spicy and seductive, this full-flavored and full-bodied wine layers cardamom, cinnamon and clove overripe strawberry and red-cherry flavors for a generous, mouthfilling effect." - Jim Gordon

This is an elegant Pinot Noir with restrained but still inviting spicy aromas. Flavors of red fruit sweep you into a smooth finish.

Fruity nose, with scents of cherry and strawberry. Good fruit flavor of red berries, but also fairly dry. A bit of a spicy finish, but not overwhelming. Well done on this Pinot!
