Ramey - Pinot Noir - Russian River Valley

Overview: Ramey Wine Cellars is dedicated to creating high quality, handcrafted wines with balance and richness from the area’s finest vineyards. Our philosophy is our process: It’s about respect for the land. Nature guides our process and we listen – closely. It’s about terroir. The vineyards are selected for their ability to sustainably produce the highest quality fruit. The soil must be right for the climate, which must be right for the terrain, which must be right for the varietal. It’s about harmony – the marriage of Old World methods with New World innovations. It’s about a family of wines crafted for the now, but even better with age. Bold, but in check, sensual, these are wines in perfect balance.

As traditionally practiced in Burgundy, we use an anaerobic approach with our Pinot
Noir to preserve freshness. It was aged sur lies with monthly bâtonnage and spent 14
months in 39% new French barrels (François Frères, Demptos and Taransaud). The
wine was then lightly fined with egg white and bottled without filtration.

Tasting Notes: This wine is sourced from a selection of different vineyards, including Bucher along Westside Road. Earthy funk underlies high-toned red cherry, rhubarb and strawberry, threading the needle between richness and crispness. A salty savory finish tops things off.

Pairing: Salmon, tuna and other oily fish, mild sausages, duck, quail, pork and lamb. Fruit-based sauces or chutneys and mushrooms make a strong supporting cast.
