Migration Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2018

Another quacking, er, cracking good wine from the Duckhorn team, this is sourced from the Dutton Ranch and Running Creek vineyards. True to Russian River form, it’s a bold take on Pinot, with plenty of upfront fruit – cherry, strawberry – and subtler hints of oak spice from 10 months in French oak, all without sacrificing elegance. Pair with seared duck breast or salmon. (Vintages panel, Jan. 2020)
