A stunning melange of three truly unique vineyard sites (58% Pisoni, 18%
Garys’, and 30% Soberanes), the 2019 Lucia Pinot Noir exhales deeply as its
ruby hue trickles down the side of the glass. Notes of spiced plum, black
cherry and sage quickly fill the glass. This wine is initially tightly wound, but
each passing minute allows for new layers and aromas to unfold. At first,
subtle notes of dried raspberry and sous bois were most prominent,
but time in the glass promotes the expression of richer, more powerful notes of
black cherry, crushed strawberry, sandalwood, and baking spice. The trademarked
coastal fog and stiff afternoon winds of the Santa Lucia Highlands provide the
refreshing acidity necessary for a long life in bottle.
