Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir (375ml)
Pinot Noir from Santa Lucia Highlands
| Vintage: | 2016 |

| Description: | 92 points Vinous. Bright ruby-red. Smoke-tinged dark berry and cherry aromas are complemented by suggestions of cola espresso and candied flowers. Nicely concentrated but lively as well offering sweet red and blue fruit flavors that are energized by building spiciness. Subtle tannins build on the persistent finish which leaves cola and floral notes behind. (jr) (10/2018) 91 points Jeb Dunnuck. The entry-level Santa Lucia Highlands cuvée is the 2016 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands, a mix of all the single vineyards, fermented with 15% stems. Black raspberries, blueberries, crushed flowers, and violet notes all emerge from this rich, textured, and fruit-forward effort. It's a powerful, textured, and ready to go. Drink it over the coming 5-6 years. (2/2019) 90 points Wine Enthusiast. Deep aromas of black-plum sauce, dark rose petals, sugar plums and roasted pork show on the nose of this appellation blend by Adam Lee. Freshly cut plums, cherry pits, squeezed cranberries and cocoa show on the vivacious sip. (mk) (7/2018) Allen Meadows - Burghound. A ripe and fresh nose combines notes of plum, red and dark berries and a pretty hint of spice. The sleek, delicious and supple middle weight flavors possess good vibrancy along with pretty good detail before concluding in a moderately firm finish that reflects a hint of asperity. This should benefit from 2 to 4 years of cellaring first. I should also note that it carries its considerable alcohol relatively well. (6/2019) Connoisseurs Guide. Fairly direct and nicely accessible black cherry aromas tinged with the slightly tangy notes of purple fruits and blueberries give this well-made, early-drinking wine plenty of charm. It is nicely supple even now with hints of velvet to its texture and if it slows down just a bit at the end, it will still shine in service with grilled steaks and chops in the here and now. *One Star* (2/2019). |
