The Winery

Rochioli

Situated in one of the most diverse geographical land plots of the Russian River Valley, the Rochioli Vineyards and Winery is known for producing terroir-driven wines with a minimal-intervention approach. The fruit harvested from the differing blocks are singularly fermented as a means to showcase the unique vines, some of which are among some of the oldest vineyards in California. With silky Pinot Noir, rich Chardonnay and several other well thought-out wines, this family-run producer is a valuable expression of the Sonoma Valley.

Tasting Notes

WA91–94
Concentration, extract and perfume increase with the 350 case lot of 1998 Pinot Noir West Block. Aged in 100% new Francois Freres oak barrels, it exhibits an alluring bouquet of black raspberries, flowers and cherry liqueur. Rich and medium to full-bodied, with gorgeous purity as well as symmetry, this multidimensional Pinot Noir will require 1-2 years of bottle age in order to shed its aggressive tannin. It will last for a decade. Range:91-94
