Pinot Report
Medium-deep ruby color; deep, spicy, earthy, forest floor aromas; big, rich, deep red cherry and forest floor flavors; some tannin and sweet oak; good structure and balance; long finish. A big and rich style with lots of deep cherry flavors—would go great with a good beef or lamb dish. The Cohn Vineyard, now called Benovia Ranch, is located at the northern end of the Russian River Valley.
Wine Spectator
A remarkable Pinot. Broad, rich and opulent, with a firm tannic backbone supporting ripe black cherry, blackberry, mineral, sage, herb and tea notes that border on syrupy. Tightens up on the finish, with ripe tannins giving it a rich, complex aftertaste.
