This wine opens with alluring ripe cherry, raspberry and strawberry aromas and has plush, succulent dark berry flavors, complimented by lavish, spicy oak elements. It is deeply colored with layered complexity and a silky, sensual, long finish. The 2006 Russian River Selection Pinot Noir shows wonderful balanced acidity and generous fruit that will pair well with grilled salmon with a hoisin glaze.

Untitled
"Medium-bodied plum, red cherry and blackberry fruit has a spicy earth and mineral edge that gives this complexity and depth on a modest framework. Drink now through 2011. 11,688 cases made. –JL" -Rated 87, Wine Spectator
Untitled
"Typically "Farrell" in its combination of focused cherry-like fruit tied to youthful restraint and a bit of still nascent leaner qualities in the nose, this bottling has a nicely rounded entry with hints of velvet and then picks up firming acids towards the back. It is medium-full-bodied in style and, despite its current charm, has the depth and balance to grow even better with but a few years of bottle aging." -Rated 88, Connoisseur's Guide to California Wines
