92pts Wine Enthusiast

Dark cherry aromas meet with rustic earthiness and cracked pepper on the nose of this single-vineyard expression, Dusty cranberry and sour cherry flavors meet with lemon peel and gamy dried pork flavors on the palate.

Winemaker Notes

This lovely wine is a tribute to the Santa Lucia Highlands featuring both the earthy and fruit flavors that this region is so well known for. It opens with dark cherry, plum and raspberry with beautifully balanced structure. It finishes with a hint of vanilla and clove on the long finish.
The well-balanced earth and fruit in this wine make it ideal for pairing with foods with layers of flavors. Enjoy it with grilled salmon topped with rice pilaf and grilled vegetables.

Blend: 100% Pinot Noir
