Santa Lucia Highlands, Central Coast, California, USA
Fresh and buoyant, the 2022 Pinot Noir Estate Cuvée shoots a vibrant array of sweet cherry, black raspberry and clove from the glass. Neatly structured yet enthusiastic, the stem inclusion adds lift and spiciness but doesn’t distract. The 2022 finishes with a linear drive. I admire the concentration of fruit here. Vineyard sites are Pisoni, Garys’ and Soberanes—a blend that really works. (Billy Norris, Vinous, August 2024)

Medium Ruby color with aromas of fresh berry fruits with spicy notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cherry with cigar box, oak, tea, citrus and floral spice notes. Well balanced, savory fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy notes. Very nice!
