Our first encounter with Brion Clever’s B. Clever model brings us a Russian River pinot noir, and a pleasant one at that. Wealthy however not overwhelming, the wine’s acidity works nicely to maintain all the pieces in test — tart cherries, ripe raspberries, and supple vanilla coming throughout in layers throughout the palate. A delicate earthiness, on model for Russian River pinot, works its approach into prominence because the wine develops in glass, however it by no means comes throughout as overly pastoral or dusky — though mild notes of licorice inform a prolonged and barely brooding end. Quite the opposite, on the entire the wine is a research in depth: brilliant and sunny, fruity and exuberant, crowd-pleasing and sophisticated. I’d order it off an inventory in a heartbeat.
