Feb 17, 2011- Winemaker Notes - The 2008 Red Label is a great expression of Sonoma County Pinot Noir with a focus on Russian River fruit and earthiness. Initially, the nose is deeper and darker than in previous vintages with the earthier side of the Russian River in the forefront and dark fruit following, but with just a little air, the fruit really blossoms and shifts to the red with bright cherry and cherry candy overtaking a background of black cherry and plum. Notes of tobacco and spice with cloves and a hint of white pepper complement the fruit along with sweet floral notes and creamy vanilla. While the acidic balance keeps the palate fresh, there is also an overall velvety quality to the texture which really fleshes out the fruit. As the Red Label opens up further and throughout the finish, strawberry and cola break through, joining the rest of the rich fruit profile, all still enveloped in spice and earthiness.
