Producer: Taft Street Winery
Region: Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Vintage: 2023

Winemaker Notes:

“Aromas of ripe plum, cola, and cherry tobacco lead to flavors of black cherry, blueberry, and mocha. A wonderful balance of Russian River Valley fruit and integrated Damy French Oak flavors linger on the palate. The result is a very elegant and enjoyable example of the Russian River Valley.”

About the Producer:

“The Taft Street story began in the 1970’s, when John Tierney & friend Mike Martini began making wine in Mike Tierney’s garage on Taft Street. The reputation of the “garagistes” wines (referring to small lots of cult wines produced by Bordeaux winemakers in garages) spread, and family and friends bonded Taft Street Winery on April Fool’s Day, 1982, in the Russian River Valley town of Forestville. Today Taft Street focuses on making wines from the Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast appellations, as well as from nearby vineyards in Dry Creek Valley and Alexander Valley. Our goals have not changed – make the highest quality wines; sell them at a fair price, and most of all, have fun in the process.”
