Score 94/100 · Drink 2025-2040, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Dec 2023

The 2021 Pinot Noir Sanford & Benedict was vinified with 75% whole clusters and matured in 100% new French oak. It has complex aromatics defined by botanical undertones that complement pomegranate and raspberry fruit, plus nuances of woodsmoke, tobacco and mushrooms. The medium-bodied palate has concentrated, layered fruit, earth and spice flavors framed by chalky tannins and juicy acidity, and it has a long, detailed finish.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Sanford & Benedict Vineyard is another ethereal wine in this range. The lighter style of the year means, among other things, that the stems (50%+) are especially evident, although the high percentage of new oak is less evident. Sweet dried cherry, mint, dried herbs, cedar and tobacco all open. Readers will find a Pinot that emphasizes savory and earthy notes more than forward fruit.
