2018 Soberanes Vineyard Pinot Noir
Santa Lucia Highlands AppellationWinemaker Tasting Notes
"Deep red color. Complex aromas of anise, sage, boysenberry, jasmine, along with orange zest, roasted strawberry, and cherry make for an engaging first encounter with this Pinot Noir. These attributes continue in the palate and are framed by lush, juicy tannins along with modest acidity. As this wine lingers, it continues the silky texture and a lovely, enduring experience. Enjoy now through 2029."
~ Director of Winemaking, Bill Brosseau

The Soberanes Vineyard is the fifth and newest vineyard in the Pisoni and Franscioni family partnership. It is located in the heart of the Santa Lucia Highlands and builds upon a tradition of high quality hand-winegrowing. Gary Pisoni says the Soberanes Vineyard is their best property to date and they are expecting great vintages from it in the future because they have been able to apply all of their experience in this new location. There are 27 acres of the Pisoni clone Pinot Noir planted and 8 acres of Chardonnay. The property is adjacent to Garys’ Vineyard with an east/northeast orientation at 400 feet in elevation. The soil is rocky, sandy loam. The vineyard was originally planted in 2008.

95 points, Anthony Dias Blue, The SOMM Journal
"Warm, earthy nose, silky with bright, tangy cherry fruit; ripe with just a hint of mature sweetness, crisp and long."
