($23): This bright Pinot Noir showcases the ripe sweet fruit of the Russian River Valley.  Concentrated, but not over the top into the Pinot Syrah category, its polished tannins make it ready to drink.  Indeed, it could stand alone for those who relish a glass of red wine before dinner, but would also be a fine choice for roast duck.
