Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 95Aged in 28% new French oak, the 2017 Pinot Noir La Rinconada Vineyard is slightly deeper ruby/plum-colored and gives up lots of mulberry and black raspberry fruits as well as sappy flowers, forest floor, and plenty of salinity and subtle marine-like notes. It's medium to full-bodied, has an elegant, seamless texture, beautiful purity, and a great finish. It's impressive!

Wine Tasting Notes
Sanford La Rinconada Vineyard Pinot Noir is a blend of from our estate vineyard, La Rinconada, and the historic Sanford and Benedict Vineyard next door. A mix of vineyard blocks and several different clones gives this wine added complexity. The wine is deep violet red in color and is bursting with raspberry, black cherry, pepper and clove on the nose. The palate delivers dusty berry flavors framed nicely by bright acidity and supple tannins.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
