The Pinot Noirs from the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County, California have become high on my list for preferable red table wines. It seems that you just can't find one which isn't at least above average, if not far better.

The Simi Russian River has an inviting nose, which leads you to flavors of plum, black cherry, and a splash of strawberry. It is a complex, yet smooth sensation on the palate, which has a lingering finish with soft notes of oak. The alcohol content is 14.5% and Norm's score is 90.

Great with steaks or salmon, we enjoyed ours with friends after dinner along with just a bit of dark chocolate, which brought an enjoyable evening to a pleasant close!

score: 90
