title: Sanford 2009 La Rinconada Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)
description: There's a grace and purity to this Pinot Noir that make it particularly recommendable. It's so light and silky, it just glides like a butterfly across the palate. But it's extraordinarily rich in wild raspberry and cherry fruit, and the white pepper and baking spices make it savory. Delicious now, but it should prosper over the next eight years, at least.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: La Rinconada
