Wine Enthusiast
Reviewed December 2023Very light colored in the glass, this bottling by a legendary producer from the region's most important vineyard begins with aromas of crisp raspberry, pomegranate and rose petals on the delicate yet inviting nose. The palate is energized with fresh and zippy acidity that presents flavors of pomegranate, lemon peel and peppercorn. (MK)

Vinous
The 2021 Pinot Noir Sanford & Benedict Vineyard Santa Barbara Historic Vineyards Collection is laced with crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, cedar, spice and incense. Aromatic and medium in body, with fine balance, the 2021 has plenty to offer. This mid-weight Pinot is attractive, but it also feels a bit compact. It spent two years in mostly new French oak. (AG)
