This spectacular Pinot Noir comes from the Pisoni Vineyard, arguably the most prominent vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands! Paul's tasting notes read: "This wine is truly the Grand Cru of Central Coast Pinot Noir where exceptional California terroir meets Burgundy-originated grape clones. Booming candy-cherry aromatics leap out of the glass with blue and black fruit notes, vanilla nuances, and crème de cassis. A stiff graphite palate with fresh, sexy tannins will open more with aging. With great minerality, long and exciting finish, this super elegant wine reminds me of one of the best Musigny-like Burgundy."
JEB DUNNUCK 96 POINTS - "All destemmed and brought up in 65% new barrels, the 2022 Pinot Noir Lancelot Pisoni Vineyard is more closed and reserved yet blossoms with air, revealing high-quality red and blackberry-like fruits, some earthy mineral and floral notes, medium-bodied richness, a pure, focused mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This beauty has a terrific sense of elegance, as well as minerality, and it will evolve beautifully over the coming decade. It's an incredibly refined, elegant, seamless expression of this site."
