Description
Named for the Babylonian goddess of wine, Siduri specializes in cool-climate Pinot Noir. Its Barbieri Vineyard Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley pulls you in with its hedonistic mix of dark cherry, sandalwood and spice notes. Aged 11 months in 40% new French oak barrels to soften the tannins, this cellar-worthy Pinot Noir showcases what a beautiful vintage this turned out to be.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
The 2018 Pinot Noir Barbieri Vineyard, from a site on Olivet Road, is bright and perfumed, with lovely red berry character pushed front and center. This silky, mid-weight Pinot captures the exuberance of the Russian River, but in a refined style that avoids bombastic intensity. Hints of orange peel, spice and licorice linger. A dollop of whole clusters adds aromatic nuance without dominating the balance.
