Hahn "SLH" Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir from Santa Lucia Highlands
| Vintage: | 2018 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 91 points Decanter. Ripe raspberry, strawberry, and Bing cherry debut with swirls of vanilla and vibrant acidity. Bright, complex and brimming with fresh, forward fruit and easy-going spice, this bottle brings the best of four distinct Santa Lucia Highland vineyards together in a display of balance and remarkable integration. (ss) (10/2020) 91 points Vinous. Brilliant scarlet. Aromas of fresh dark berries, pungent flowers, cola and a hint of allspice on the perfumed nose. Juicy and expansive in the mouth, offering concentrated bitter cherry and black raspberry flavors braced by a core of zesty acidity. Picks up licorice and savory herb notes with air and finishes long and smooth, with discreet tannins sneaking in late. (jr) (10/2020) 91 points Wine Enthusiast. Fresh carnation and raspberry are spiced up with peppercorns, smashed asphalt and turned earth on the complex nose of this bottling. The palate is quite cohesive in flavors of roasted cherry and ripe strawberry, with fennel pollen, crushed slate and baking spice adding depth. (mk) (11/2020) K&L Notes. Nicky Hahn, who founded Hahn Family Wines and released its first vintage in 1980, led the effort to establish the Santa Lucia Highlands in Monterey County as its own distinct appellation. The Slh was approved as an Ava in 1991 and these wines demonstrate the appellation's best qualities. |
