DESCRIPTION

For years, the Keefer Ranch Vineyard has been a stalwart in the Siduri portfolio of Pinot Noirs. This remains to be the case, even though the name of the vineyard has changed to the Dutton-Perry Ranch Vineyard. This was done because of a change in ownership of the vineyard – in other words, the name is different but the important stuff remains the same. The Dutton-Perry Ranch Vineyard is in the Green Valley sub- appellation of the Russian River Valley. This puts it into the far western edge of the Russian River Valley and into the cooler part of the Appellation. This cool and foggy location allows for the grapes to ripen slowly and achieve remarkable physiological ripeness. We are fortunate to source from four sections of the Dutton-Perry Ranch Vineyard, each possessing a different clone. This combination of site and selection allows us to consistently produce an outstanding Dutton-Perry Ranch Pinot Noir every vintage.

"
Coming from the vineyard formerly known as Keefer Ranch in the Russian River Valley and pouring a bright ruby red color, the 2023 Pinot Noir Dutton-Perry Ranch is very pretty on the nose, with an attractive floral perfume lifting from the glass, with elegant, savory notes of fresh red cherries and sweet spices. The palate is pretty and elegant and has a fresh evenness of acidity, as well as a silky, rounded feel. A very pretty wine for this vintage, it’s only going to improve, keeping its pure fruit but allowing for the more savory elements to start to shine and layer the wine. Drink 2025-2037."

Russian River Valley

WELL-DRAINED SOILS, NEIGHBORHOOD DIVERSITY, COLA NOTES FOR DAYS

Winemaker’s Favorite Aspect:

There are so many ways to express the Russian River Valley through the diversity of microclimates and soil types—it’s a huge sandbox to play in.

Climate:

Warm days and foggy nights

Regional Overview:

Sub-AVAs and neighborhoods have different expressions, but the common themes are cola notes, richness, and soft tannins.

FOOD PAIRINGS:

Beef “Osso Buco” with porcini mushrooms is a superb match for the richer, weightier style of our Russian River Valley. Sauteed mushrooms and Russian River Pinot Noir are already a classic combo, and this pairing steps it up in a major way!
