Chev is a distinguished winery known for crafting exceptional Pinot Noir wines from the Russian River Valley, a renowned appellation in California celebrated for its cool climate and foggy mornings, ideal for growing Pinot Noir grapes. This wine showcases the classic characteristics of the varietal, with a delicate balance of red fruit flavors such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle earthy undertones and a hint of spice. The winemaking process involves careful fermentation and aging in French oak barrels, which imparts a refined structure and a smooth, lingering finish. The Chev Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with dishes like roasted duck, grilled salmon, or mushroom risotto, enhancing the dining experience with its elegant profile.

Professional Scores

This opulent wine is jam-packed with red- and black-fruit flavors on a polished, broad and mouthfilling texture that gradually releases red-cherry, black-cherry, raspberry and rhubarb flavors, while boosting meaty, savory, forest-floor notes as well. A full body, ultrasmooth tannins and a touch of tangy fruit acidity bring it into good balance, too. — Jim Gordon
