2018 SRH Pinot Noir
Sta. Rita Hills

Sustainability in Practice Certified Wine

The Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir is a blend of seven different clones grown on two contiguous vineyards. Winemaker Bruce McGuire balances fruit from Lafond Vineyard and Burning Creek Ranch to create a distinct and nuanced wine.

Located in Sta. Rita Hills, both vineyard sites benefit from the offshore breeze, coastal fog, and the river deposited soils. And with multiple clones to work with, Bruce has the flexibility each year to create a delicious vintage.

Lafond Vineyard is ideally situated to produce Pinot Noir exhibiting the unique and exotic flavor profile one finds in only a few regions of the world. Specific areas within our vineyard exhibit elevated concentration and complexity due to soil type and exposure to the elements. We have planted eight distinct clones of Pinot Noir, each with subtle differences in flavor and aroma.

Tasting Notes
The 2018 Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir has a rich ruby color with aromas of raspberry and ripe cherry. Subtle notes of cedar are just behind the fruit. Medium-bodied and well-balanced, cherry pie and sweet tobacco leaf cross the palate for a smooth, lingering finish.
