March 1, 2024 - I buy all the top producers from Russian River and in my opinion, the Rochioli Three Corner is the most classic, quintessential expression of pinot noir from this tiny corner of the world. It always comes off as balanced, vibrant, composed - nothing over the top and just the right amount of energy, acid, femininity, elegance. From vintage to vintage, sometimes less power and richness than some other Rochioli SVD's but always tastes consistent and classic. Rest in peace, Joe Rochioli.

December 17, 2023 - Ruby color. Black raspberries, floral and minerals in the nose. Black cherries, black currants, plums and hints of licorice in the flavor. Full bodied, very well balanced, nice acidity and a long finish. Delicious.

February 12, 2023 - PnP. Medium deep red. Knock out nose of ripe boysenberry, blackberry. Smooth on the palate with lovely flavors and little in the way of residual tannins on the finish. Totally different from the previous bottle from 2022 and much superior. Classic Rochoili RRV Pinot - really enjoyable to drink and much more consistent with other tasters notes, leading me to believe the prior bottle was flawed.
