FYI: RRV is now a coastal wine region.

Despite never touching the ocean, a sales rep told me repeatedly that the Russian River Valley wines he was pouring were coastal wines. The wines certainly had that classic stewed fruit compote character we all associate with cool climate, balanced coastal wines. Luckily balanced with a thick layer of new oak to maintain freshness.

Someone please get rid of the three tier system already. No offense if that's your job...
