The 2018 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands comes from Pisoni, Garys', Soberanes and Sierra Mar vineyards. Medium ruby, it has bright, crunchy red cherries and blackberries, tar, potting soil and rose petals scents with a medium-bodied palate that's broody and earthy but lifted by good freshness and finely grained, finishing long.

Big and ripe, with firm tannins juicing the slate, dried red fruit and spice flavors. Mocha hints show on the broad, powerful finish, revealing creamy accents. Drink now through 2023. 2,250 cases made.??–KM??Region: California / Santa Lucia Highlands Select to Add
