Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2022

WE90

Experience the exceptional Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2022, a wine crafted from the iconic vineyards of one of California’s premier wine regions. The 2022 growing season began with a slightly later bud break, followed by a warm, dry bloom period that encouraged even fruit set. The defining challenge of the season came in the form of a heat wave during Labor Day Weekend, which pushed the vineyards to their limits. Thanks to Siduri’s deep-rooted knowledge and decades of experience in these vineyards, the fruit was harvested before dehydration set in, preserving the freshness and balance that make this wine so special.

  • Tasting Notes:
    • Nose: Bright and expressive, with layers of red fruit, such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by delicate floral notes and a hint of spice.
    • Palate: Medium-bodied with a silky texture, offering vibrant acidity and ripe fruit flavors, balanced with subtle oak nuances and earthy undertones.
    • Finish: The signature acidity of the Santa Lucia Highlands shines through, providing a fresh and refreshing finish that beautifully balances the richness of the fruit.

The 2022 vintage from the Santa Lucia Highlands is a standout, showcasing impressive balance and seamless integration between acidity and fruit richness. With harvest taking place over just two weeks, the resulting wine displays both power and grace, embodying the best qualities of the region.

Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a wide range of dishes, Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2022 is a must-have for Pinot Noir lovers looking to experience the exceptional quality and character of the Santa Lucia Highlands.

"Baked black cherry, cola and root beer aromas are pleasantly rich on the nose of this bottling. The palate is bold and ripe with more cherry, caramel and nutmeg-dust flavors. Rose petal nuances add a floral kick to the finish."
