title: Joseph Jewell 2009 Floodgate Vineyard Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley)
description: Shows all the hallmarks of an ageable Pinot Noir. The raspberry, cherry and cola flavors are very rich, but the structure is immaculate. Fine, firm tannins combine with zesty acidity to create a tightness in the mouth. As nice as this Pinot is, it will develop bottle nuances over the next six years.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Floodgate Vineyard
