Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir, California, USA 2022

Description

Jeb Dunnuck 91

Fruity, dark, and brooding, the 2022 Pinot Noir is an impressive appellation wine that is giving in gentle tannins. Sourced primarily from the Soberanes, Sierra Mar, and Kitewinder vineyards, it aims to tell the story of the region in this vintage, which in this case is ripe red and black berry fruit with supple tannins and balanced acidity that adds tension. Drink now and another 5-7 years.

Wine Spectator 91

Juicy and brambly in feel, with dark cherry and boysenberry compote notes enlivened by anise, apple wood and black tea. Obvious in style, but there's some underlying zip for balance. Drink now through 2030. 998 cases made.
