James Suckling Review
Rated 94
Perfumed aromas of sliced strawberry, crushed thyme, rosemary and violet. Medium-bodied with velvety tannins. Wonderfully structured, with nuance and a subtlety long finish. Articulate acidity that brings real clarity to the fruit. Lovely. Drink or hold.
Wine Tasting Notes
Balletto Sexton Hill Vineyard Russian River Pinot Noir opens with dark and brambly berries, strong black tea and a host of difficult-to-pin-down aromas. There iss simply too much overlapping and nudging to confidently identify singular aromas. Is that coffee? Nutmeg? Chocolate? Orange peel? Who cares. The complexity is awesome. And thats all that matters. Then there's the mouth feel - the texture and balance speak volumes. Its big and lush without being gooey; its tannic and serious, yet still drinkable now; its tart, but not distractingly sour. And the finish? Long, long, long. This is a distinct pinot that could only come from our estate Sexton Hill Vineyard. And that's the whole point.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips
- Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
- Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
- Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
- Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
