2020 Papera Ranch Heritage Wine, Russian River Valley
Located at the heart of the Piner/Olivet area of Russian River Valley, Papera Ranch is one of the great crus for old vines in California thanks to the amazing work done by its owner Stuart Coulson, one of the great champions of old vines in Russian River Valley. The wines from this ranch combine the vibrant, blue-toned fruit of the Russian River Valley with the density of low-cropping old vines. Our block of the ranch, which includes eleven different varieties along with a large slug of Carignan, plays up the natural brightness of the site with the added spice and energy brought by the mixed varieties. Papera is like Dolly Parton, Rick Rubin or Quincy Jones: it just produces hit after hit after hit. $45
