" The 2021 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills Cuvée combines the stellar La Rinconada, Wenzlau, Sanford & Benedict and Rancho La Viña sites. A dark yet buoyant and graceful nose of blue fruits and savory accents introduce a polished, lush palate with similar precision as found across the range. The finish is intensely saline, with fine-grained, stem-derived tannins appearing after aeration. This is a beautiful introduction to one of the more exciting projects in the Sta. Rita Hills."
