Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2023 is a beautifully energetic expression of one of California's benchmark cool-climate Pinot Noir appellations. Sta. Rita Hills sits at the western edge of the Santa Ynez Valley, where Pacific breezes and a cool growing environment help Pinot Noir retain acidity, aromatic lift and freshness.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe 2023 delivers layers of raspberry, cherry, herbs, earth, tea and spice with a light-footed structure and a savory, mineral-driven finish.
