Gary Farrell Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2023

92 Points, Wine Spectator – 92 Points, Wine Enthusiast

Gary Farrell developed legendary partnerships with some of Sonoma County’s most renowned vineyards—Rochioli, Allen, Bacigalupi, and Hallberg—before they were widely recognized. His obsession with site specificity created what became known as the “Gary Farrell-esque” style: balance, vibrant acidity, and elegant cool-climate expression.

Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast both gave it 92 points with the latter calling out “Focused aromas of black cherry, blackberry and cola. Wine Spectator deemed this “A bright and friendly version, whose pomegranate and cherry fruit is engaging, with flashes of rose petal and iris.” It’s just a really beautiful, trademark Russian River Valley Pinot Noir that’s as classy as they come, especially at this price point.
