Spring feels sort of like it might finally be close and to celebrate, we nabbed some value every day drinkers from #Oregon and #California - on one side is the 2018 @lakesonomawinery Russian River Valley Chardonnay and on the other is the 2017 @kwcellars Willamette Valley Pinot Noir. Our good friends at @corkfinewineyyc helped us out with contactless curbside delivery. Stay safe friends and a toast to those that keep us safe! It feels like we might be turning the corner on this virus soon. #chardonnay #pinotnoir #russianrivervalley #willamettevalley (at Tuscany, Calgary) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_GRXMgJcms/?igshid=1qvqtlwxcztf2

I recently saw where Davis Bynum was reflecting on the life and legacy of their namesake and founder. Just so happens I was enjoying their 2016 Jane’s Vineyard Pinot Noir when I saw the post on social media. Rightly called one of the icons and visionaries of Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, Davis Bynum was the first to produce a single-vineyard Pinot Noir to carry the Russian River designation. The vintage was 1973 and fruit was sourced from Joe Rochioli's now prized vineyard. As for this 2016 Jane’s Vineyard Pinot Noir, it’s quite tasty and retails for around $30. It’s medium-bodied, fresh, and snappy, with a mix of wild berry, baking spice, and purple stone fruit, rounded out by fine-grained tannins and a pleasing finish. Give it a try if you see it in stores or on a wine list.

Rodney Strong 2014 Pinot Noir: Ruby colored, medium-bodied, and easy on the palate, with raspberry and cherry flavors. In the mouth, you’ll enjoy its freshness, and there’s some pepper and understated spicy oak influences on the finish. A solid, value-driven Pinot Noir that you should be able to find for under $20. #RussianRiverValley #Sonoma #PinotNoir #wine #winelover #myvinespot

This is a downright delicious and complex cool-climate Syrah from @RonRubinWinery. Notes will be up on the blog in the coming days. I think I will have the last glass with lamb tomorrow. Cheers! #GreenValley #RussianRiverValley #Sonoma #wine #winelover #myvinespot

@RochioliWinery 2015 Russian River Valley Chardonnay (SRP $49): Inviting aromas mirror flavors of citrus blossom, crème brûlée, buttered nuts, and spiced fruit tart. Rich in texture and full-bodied, bright acidity gives this wine a welcoming lift and provides seamless balance. It finishes with a pleasant burst of fruit and spice. This is the type of Chardonnay I enjoy at cellar temperature with a nice slab of smoked salmon. #NationalWineDay #ChardonnayDay #Sonoma #RussianRiverValley #Rochioli #Chardonnay #wine #winelover #myvinespot
