Lucia Santa Lucia Highlands Estate Pinot Noir 2023

$5599

Lucia's Estate Cuvee Pinot Noir is a portrait of the Santa Lucia Highlands from the Pisoni family's own vineyards — the kind of bottle that explains why this region became one of California's great Pinot addresses. Mark Pisoni blends fruit from Pisoni, Garys', Soberanes, and (new this vintage) WindRock — all family-owned sites along the SLH bench — to build a wine with both the dark-fruited intensity of the Highlands and the layered finesse of well-handled Pinot. The 2023 was a long, slow, classic vintage on the bench, and the wine shows the result: bright red raspberry and dark cherry, soft layered tannins, allspice lift, and a long, polished finish.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2023 Pinot Noir Estate Cuvée is a beautiful, super-finessed wine. This year marks the first inclusion of fruit from the newest vineyard in the Pisoni/Franscioni portfolio—WindRock—which joins the typical lineup of Pisoni, Garys’ and Soberanes. The 2023 is a model of elegance. Floral-inflected notes of blood orange, lavender and sweet spices build in a broad yet focused, supple, velvety Pinot Noir. The finish lasts long beyond each sip. Everything here speaks to refinement, polish and poise." —Billy Norris

"There's a gamy kick to the nose of this bottling that gives an earthy richness to the berry and chaparral aromas. The palate shows even more chaparral spice and a zippy acidity, balancing the ripe cherry flavors." —Matt Kettmann
