**2021 Sanford Winery Pinot Noir, Sta. Rita Hills (375ML)** This luminous Pinot Noir opens with gorgeous aromas of fresh cherry, alpine strawberries, white pepper, and spice cake, with hints of woodland and incense that deepen with aeration.
On the palate, it’s vibrant and composed, delivering exotic red and black fruit flavors with a silky texture and fine tannin structure. The wine shows the hallmark elegance of Sanford & Benedict Vineyard—one of the Santa Rita Hills’ defining sites—with the focused intensity and aging potential you’d expect from old-vine fruit. Drink now through 2030, or cellar for 4–5 years to unlock additional complexity.
Serve at 62°F alongside smoked duck breast, prime tri-tip, or other rich red meat dishes.
