Tasting Notes

The 2021 Pinot Noir Sanford & Benedict Vineyard is a powerful, dense wine. A high percentage of whole clusters (50%) is a strong marker. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and licorice open with some coaxing. The 2021 is a very pretty wine. This opens beautifully with time in the glass. For my palate, I would like to see more site character and less overt stem influence. 2024 - 2036
