Lucia Pinot Noir "ESTATE CUVEE" Santa Lucia Highlands 375mL
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Grown exclusively from the Pisoni Family's Pisoni, Garys', and Soberanes vineyards, the Lucia appellation-based wines are a wonderful representation of their estate vineyards, of which each block is cultivated to the same high standards. These wines offer excellent value, and Jeb Dunnuck has previously described these Ava blends as "a perfect example of the incredible quality that's consistently coming from this estate.". A stunning melange of three truly unique vineyard sites (60% Pisoni, 23% Garys', and 17% Soberanes), this wine offers up enticing aromas of strawberry compote, juicy cranberry, sandalwood, and black tea leaves, all contained within the embrace of its deep ruby hue. Layers of black cherry, Mission fig, spiced plum, and berry crumble provide a stepping stone for more subtle hints of fresh sage, clove, and vanilla bean to make their voices heard. A true snapshot of these wind-swept vines, this Pinot Noir finishes with vibrant acidity and a distinct, yet noticeably approachable structure. Don't be surprised to see this wine continuing to amaze for years to come. Jeb Dunnuck 93 Points - "Looking at the three Pinot Noirs, the 2021 Pinot Noir Estate Cuvee is a larger production release (2256 cases) that brings terrific darker berry fruits, some spice, underbrush, black tea, and crushed stone nuances, medium body, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish. A serious wine, it benefits from air and will easily evolve for 5-7 years or more. It's a smoking value in impeccably made, high-quality Pinot Noir that will beat the pants off many a Premier Cru Burgundy." |
