The 2020 Leras Family Vineyards Pinot Noir from Papapietro sees 50% new French oak barrels for 11 months during aging. It’s another big and bold Pinot that showcases Russian River Valley perfectly - think notes of crushed strawberries, cherry candy, tilled earth, sweet spice, and cedary herbs with just a smooch of earth. Tannins are sweet and plump while the lemony acidity cuts through the aggressive red fruit finish. 1028 cases made.
