Russian River Vineyards Library Collection

We are very proud to announce the first release of wines from the Russian River Vineyards Library Collection.  These are our most age-worthy, rare, and collectible wines, withheld from sale until they have been aged sufficiently to be at their peak of structure and balance.

When you purchase from our library collection, you can be assured that you are enjoying our wines at the pinnacle of their quality.

"Older wines are an acquired taste.  They are now pretty rare because the industry has taught consumers to drink young wine.  These wines were meant to age. "

 

- Anthony Austin

Please note that we ship out of the tasting room Monday through Thursday.

This wine is a part of our Library Collection wines, which are a select group of our most age-worthy & rare wines. This Pinot Noir is from the second oldest remaining vintage produced from our Legacy Estate Pinot Noir Vineyard, which was planted in the late 90's and inherited by us in 2008. It was removed in 2017, so 2016 was the final vintage from this vineyard. The 2016 vintage showed a return to normal yields in Sonoma compared to 2015, and was generally a good year.
