It's rare that you see both The Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast agree on what they consider the "best of breed," but the small product Screen Door Cellars Russian River 2021 is the Top Rated Pinot Noir sold for under $30! Limited to 1,000 cases, the Screen Door Russian River Pinot Noir retains the best aspects of Old World style, with the silky texture and bright core of red and black fruits typical of California. Half the blend is aged 11 months in new French oak, the other in neutral, which allows the hints of cinnamon, black licorice, blackberry, anise, and chocolate cherry to shine through. Unique to find this class of Russian River Pinot Noir at the $29.99 price, even the Tasting Panel awarded the 2021 vintage a Double Gold, Exceptional (93 Points). Only 40 cases left of this 93 Point Vintage. Don't miss it!
“Tempting, rich fruit aromas of baked cherries and ripe strawberries are followed by palate-warming, generous red and black cherries, dark plums and subtle oak spices. A full body and smooth, inviting texture make it seamless to sip.” The Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points
“Leads with expressive cherry and blackberry compote notes, while sleek red tea and incense accents run through the juicy finish. Very tasty.” The Wine Spectator, 92 Points
