Santa Lucia Highlands
2019 Pisoni Vineyard Pinot Noir 1.5L
This justifiably famous site, long considered the best in the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA, produces wines that are enigmatically powerful, yet detailed, nuanced, and complex. With power to spare, this site tends to revel in opulent, large-scale versions of Pinot Noir. The wine is supple and dense, with layers of red and blue fruits and clove spice. The tannins are broad, mouth-coating and resolved, creating a rich and creamy mid-palate with a long and detailed finish that keeps the flavors pumping. The typical high acidity found at this cool site keeps the wine fresh, pure, and elegant.
