Merchant's description

The Chanin Sanford & Benedict Pinot Noir 2015 is sourced from the historic Sanford & Benedict Vineyard in the Sta Rita Hills AVA of Santa Barbara County, California. The wine features notes of dark cherry, plum and subtle hints of lavender and mint, indicative of the region`s cool climate. The 2015 vintage faced challenges with spring weather, leading to reduced yields; however, this has contributed to a structure that demonstrates potential for future development. Chanin Wines is noted for its focus on minimal-intervention winemaking.
