2015 Furthermore La Encantada Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir

13.6% alc., 151 cases, $50. This organically-farmed vineyard was planted by Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir icon Richard Sanford. Clones 115, 667, and 777. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. Enticing aromas of dark red cherry and berry, exotic spices, pipe smoke and toast. Impressive energy in a mid weight style offering flavors of blueberry and black raspberry with a thread of oak. Nicely balanced and easy to approach, with a modest but satisfying finish. Best several hours after opening. The wine’s best feature is the vivacious acidity. Score: 92. Reviewed March 23, 2019
