Joseph Swan Vineyards' Cuvée de Trois is a 2019 Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley, a blend that channels the producer's old-school approach to the varietal. This is straightforward, unpretentious winemaking that prioritizes character over polish.
The wine shows translucence in the glass and leads with crunchy cherry and berry fruit, orange peel, and new leather. The acids are delicate and chalky, the overall feel charming and unfussy. A whisper of rose petal on the finish gives it a graceful final note. This is Pinot Noir that knows what it is and doesn't apologize for it.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Cuvée de Trois is a classic, old-school Pinot Noir that oozes rustic charm. It's also the most compelling of the wines I tasted in this range. Translucent in the glass, the 2019 delivers crunchy cherry-berry fruit, orange peel, new leather and delicate, chalky acids. It's charming and delightfully unfussy, with a rose-petal-tinged finish that puts a little bow on top.
