temperatures and a harvest season ideal for the Burgundian varieties
of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

Russian River Pinot Noir Tasting Notes: In 2005 the encounter between the terroirs of the
Russian River Valley and the blessing of a perfect growing season
was nothing less than magical for a handful of Pinot Noir producers,
such was the case for Macrae Family Winery. Infused with the alchemy
of Bacigalupi Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir vineyard and
winemaker Kerry Damskey’s craft and inspiration, this wine will
delight t both he diner and the collector of fine wine.
The Macrae Family Winery clearly has established a signature
Pinot Noir style, providing the taster with a wine that speaks of
rose pedal aromas with a slight accent of earth and mushroom. The
palate is generously layered with a complexity and elegantly
stylized soft and textured finish.
