Bucher 2012 Three Sixty Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley)
Cellar Selection
The vineyard, founded in 1997, is familiar to Pinot lovers through its bottlings from Williams Selyem. Located in the heart of the valley's Middle Reach, its wines are softer, riper and fuller-bodied than those from the cooler south. With this bottling, the Bucher family has produced an ageworthy wine that amply displays the vineyard's terroir. The raspberry and cherry fruits are wrapped into firm tannins, with new French oak bringing sweeter notes of toast and caramel. Drink 2018 through at least 2024.
