The 2020 Pinot Noir Sandy's Block is a huge, dense wine. Sandy's is never this dark or concentrated, but that is the vintage speaking. Black cherry, plum, mocha, incense and cloves flesh out in thee glass. The 50% whole clusters add quite a bit of savory nuance, but the Sandy's remains quite the powerhouse. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, August 2022)
