The Fifth Annual Blind Tasting of American Pinot Noir: Retail $140. Rich fruit, lovely red berries, fantastic on the nose. On the fruitier side of Pinot on the palate, but lacking in the depth department. Still a lovely wine, but not as complex as others here. 89 points.
2019 Sanford Pinot Noir Founders Vines Sanford & Benedict Vineyard, $125. Light ruby, viscous (13.5 alc.); red fruit, leaves, old world nose; light oak (16 months in French oak, 30% new); mid acids, tannins; medium depth; long rich elegant finish. 17.5 UC Davis scale, 93 other scales.
