Sanford Pinot Noir 2000 (California)

Price - $27.99 Size - 750 mL- Old World vs. New World Wine Tasting held on Monday May 16, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs with Will Gillum, comparing representative varietals from Old and New World Styles. I posted some thoughts I had before the tasting, and thoughts I had after the tasting.

Light red but slightly darker than the Drouhin Volnay. Has heavy legs with strawberries and fruit on the nose. Flavors of fruit, cherries and a smoky vanilla hint. Nice tannins (ageable) with big depth and a lot of body. Long finish on this one. For more information visit Sanford Winery website. Buy Sanford 2001 Pinot Noir . Grade: A
