Description

Behind every bottle of Rodney Strong wine is a family of passionate people committed to providing premium wines and great experiences. From cellar workers to winemakers, from office staff to hospitality, from our founder Rod Strong to our family owners, we are one big family. We are united by our passion for wine and the belief that nothing brings people together better than sharing a great bottle of Rodney Strong. Our 2017 Estate Russian River Valley Pinot Noir has lovely aromas of red fruit, floral and earth. With a soft and silky texture, on the palate, dark cherry, cranberry, and baking spice characteristics shine through with balance, acidity and a nice lingering finish. Rod Strong was among the first modern wine pioneers with a vision to plant Pinot Noir in the Russian River Valley. In 1968, he planted our heritage River East Vineyard in the alluvial clay-loam soils adjacent to the winery in Healdsburg. 100% Pinot Noir 11 months in 100% French oak barrels, 36% new 14.5% alcohol by volume.
