Sanford Rosé of Pinot Noir 2017 Review
This classy rosé from the Sta. Rita Hills area of Santa Barbara County is a complex and refreshing wine that won’t let you forget that it’s made from Pinot Noir. Like its red Pinot counterparts, it has both fruity and earthy components, and is complex and dry. If you like Pinot Noir, and appreciate a dry, fuller style of rosé, this will become a new favorite.
