BIG Juicy Reds...Russian River or Dry Creek

[shf66shf]

I will have only 1 day to tour wineries. We will be staying in Russian River. Some on the site have suggested Hop-Kiln, Hartford, Mazocco. Should we focus the day on Russian River or Dry Creek. I love the Rhone varietals. Reds that have a big, strong start and a smooth finish. I love single varietals or blends of Mourvedre, Tannat, Petite Verdot, Grenache. Any suggestions?

Thanks to all for your input. Whiner, I wrote down the wineries you sent to me on a former posting of mine. I am going to stick to RR. Thanks!

Your in the wrong area for those varietals, but if you like the mourved/grenache go for the
Russian River as you will find big juicy Pinots with bright clean acidity. Dry Creek is known for their Zins.

A Rafenelli - Dry Creek. A fabulous Estate Cabernet

Raymond Burr - Dry Creek . They do an incredible Cabernet Franc.
