Status Quo Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2023

“A spicy, bright, red-fruited wine with notes of incense and grapefruit zest, and a squeeze of tangerine peel building on the palate. Suave, sinewy tannins and crunchy acidity frame the core, with emerging salinity, underbrush, and black tea leaf nuances. The wine’s tension and acid drive demand it be enjoyed alongside well-salted red meats, rich Indian cuisine, or spicy Asian fare.”
