2021 Mueller Pinot Noir "Emily's Cuvée", Russian River Valley
Our first production of “Emily’s Cuvée” pinot noir was created in 1994. The fruit arrived the same day that our daughter, Emily was born, however, there is some controversy over which came first! This blend was created to honor our wonderful daughter, Emily. This wine has been distributed locally, nationally and internationally for over twenty years.
Bob's Notes:
Our goal with “Emily’s Cuvée” is to produce a wine that is generous in fruity aromatics, rich in flavors yet with a gentle softness and fullness on the palate that makes the wine immensely and immediately enjoyable. This new release of “Emily’s” is a blend of several French and Swiss clones. Each clone has a slightly different and altogether complimentary and pleasing characteristic of the variety. Careful blending of these clones creates another delicious, memorable “Emily’s Cuvée”.
The 2021 “Emily’s Cuvée” Pinot Noir has exciting, bright and fruity aromatics of Bing cherries (dark, sweet cherry), strawberries and vanilla. Take a sip and your palate is awash in strawberry, red and dark cherry with a touch of toasty oak. Let the wine sit for a few seconds before swallowing (if you can) and let the flavors expand while enjoying the richness and the soft, luxurious touch of “Emily’s Cuvée”. Cheers!
