2018 Cortada Alta Vineyard Pinot Noir
In Stock
Cortada Alta Vineyard is the highest site in the entire Santa Lucia Highlands. John Peterson and Ruben Balderas planted this starting in 2014, with Sandler's first harvest being 2017. The Pinot from Cortada Alta is dark and somewhat tannic for Pinot, but beautifully-balanced and should age nicely.
