2016 Bob Cabral Wines Troubadour Pinot Noir: A Masterpiece from Russian River Valley

Indulge in the exquisite craftsmanship of the 2016 Bob Cabral Wines Troubadour Pinot Noir, a limited-edition gem from California’s renowned Russian River Valley, Sonoma County. This 95+ point Wine Advocate and 94 point Wine Enthusiast award-winning wine embodies elegance, complexity, and a harmonious balance that captivates even the most discerning palates.

Crafted by famed winemaker Bob Cabral, this medium-bodied Pinot Noir boasts a captivating ruby-purple hue and an alluring nose of dried violets, lilac, crushed stone, pipe tobacco, and forest floor, layered with subtle herbal notes. The palate is a symphony of fresh black and red fruits, including plum, wild strawberry, and dark cherry, complemented by a silky texture and fine-grained tannins that lead to a long, juicy finish with hints of cardamom and sandalwood.

Sourced from premium vineyards like Graham Family Vineyard, Brandt Ranch, and Stevens Vineyard—with the addition of the Calera clone—this wine showcases the unique terroir of Goldridge soils. The result is a richer, broader profile than its 2015 counterpart, with vibrant acidity and a lingering freshness that makes it perfect for immediate enjoyment or aging for 3-5 years.

Whether paired with gourmet dishes or savored on its own, this limited-production Pinot Noir (229 cases) offers a rare opportunity to experience the artistry of Bob Cabral. Drink now through 2025 for optimal enjoyment.
