Description
Russian River Valley Pinot Noir from One of Sonoma’s Most Celebrated Partnerships
Dutton-Goldfield is the acclaimed collaboration between winemaker Dan Goldfield and grower Steve Dutton, whose family has farmed the Russian River Valley for generations. The Dutton Ranch Pinot Noir — sourced from the Dutton family’s estate vineyards in the heart of the Russian River Valley — is a benchmark expression of the appellation: silky, fruit-driven, and beautifully balanced, with the cool-climate precision and layered complexity that have made Russian River Valley one of America’s greatest Pinot Noir regions.
Expert Reviews
- Wine Enthusiast — 94 pts: “This silky, fruity and refined wine shows great balance between generous red cherry, raspberry and dark plum flavors, and refreshing acidity and moderate tannins. It’s poised to drink soon but OK to allow it to mature further.”
Winemaker Notes
Beautiful dark ruby color with a nose that pops with boysenberry, cherry, and blueberry dancing over sandalwood and baking spice, with a pretty touch of purple flowers. Plush and supple on the palate with juicy berry compote character carrying through to a lingering finish.
