Sandar & Hem Magnum (1.5L) 2019 Mindego Ridge Pinot Noir
THE VINEYARDS
Eight miles inland from the Pacific Ocean at the far northern reaches of the Santa Cruz
Mountains, atop a ridge of fractured purisima shale, lies the Mindego Ridge Vineyard. Pinot Noir is at home here on the steep, southern facing slopes, benefiting from a heavily marine-influenced climate to produce wines of intense minerality, complexity, and character. Farmed to bring the best expression from the site, adopting best practices from organic, sustainable and biodynamic farming disciplines.
TASTING NOTES
Deep ruby in color, the wine entices with rich aromas of violet, black raspberry, blood orange, and mace with a refreshing palate of crisp red plum, currant and orange rind, as sage and a touch of clove add to the energetic mouthfeel.
