The 2018 Sanford Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir is a blend of fruit from our two estate vineyards: the historic Sanford and Benedict Vineyard and La Rinconada. Both of these stellar vineyards are in the heart of the Sta. Rita Hills.

Structured, Light-bodied
Delivers spice and savory, dark fruits, espresso, and leather.
Very spice driven on the nose with cloves, lavender, wild mushrooms, and forest floor.
The palate delivers spice and savory, dark fruits, espresso, and leather with balanced acid and suave tannin structure, which carries the lovely finish.
