What do you think of pinot noirs?

24.4.150.31

...our wine tasting group of 6 tasted 6 CA Russian River pinots and here are the results:

6. 2011 Balletto $25 - 27pts
5. 2011 Siduri $29 - 26pts
4. 2011 Irony $25 - 24pts
3. 2011 Rodney Strong $19 - 21pts (BevMo 5 cent sale)
2. 2010 Shane "The Charm" $30 - 13pts (DuMol winemaker)
1. 2011 Duckhorn Migration $38 - 12pts

This is somewhat of a consensus with a big point drop from 3rd to the first 2 places.

For the money, the Rodney Strong is a winner. The low rating of the Siduri was a surprise.
