2022 Lando Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

Aromas of dark Bing cherry, ripe raspberry, sassafras, and rose petal lead into a rich, lush palate. Flavors of black cherry, wild berry compote, cola nut, and warm baking spices mesh with subtle notes of forest floor and earthy loam. The texture is velvety and mouth-coating, balanced by bright acidity and fine-grained tannins through a long, polished finish.

Hand-harvested from select small-lot vineyard blocks and meticulously sorted. The fruit undergoes gentle open-top fermentations before aging in French oak barrels to build textural weight and frame the vibrant fruit without masking its natural purity.

Grapes are sourced from boutique vineyard sites across the Russian River Valley in Sonoma County. Cool morning fog rolling in from the Pacific combines with warm afternoons and well-drained Goldridge soils, allowing the fruit to ripen fully while maintaining fresh natural acidity.
