2000 D'Argenzio Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley

The world-famed growing region of Sonoma County, with its foggy mornings and long afternoon sun, is increasingly the appellation of choice for award-winning Pinot Noir.

Tasting Notes

"Our classically Italian stylistic approach to this splendidly versatile varietal is intensely flavored, with great body and structure. You will find it the perfect accompaniment for all but the very lightest of dishes, and pure magic paired with a delicate ravioli, warm Italian bread and Asiago cheese."
