Winemaker Notes

This justifiably famous site produces wines that are enigmatically powerful, yet detailed, nuanced and complex. With power to spare, this site tends to revel in opulent, large scale versions of Pinot Noir. The 2017 vintage will delight fans of this larger-than-life style. The wine is round and dense, with layers of blue fruit and spice. The tannins are broad, coating and resolved, creating a creamy and supple mid-palate, with a long and detailed finish that keeps the flavors pumping. The typical high acidity found at this cool site keeps the wine fresh, pure and elegant.

    The 2017 Pinot Noir Pisoni Vineyard was made with 10% whole cluster and aged in 70% new oak. Pale to medium ruby-purple, it opens warm and inviting with cinnamon toast, Bing cherries, fresh cranberries, red licorice, tangerine peel, tree bark and amaro. It’s medium-bodied, über silky and spicy, framed by grainy tannins and lip-smacking acidity with a long, flavorful finish. Well done! 743 cases produced.

    This is a hearty, smoky and rather burly wine from this legendary vineyard, with dense, deep and savory aromas of campfire-grilled meats, charred blood and intense blackberry. The feral smoke element weaves through the sip, where scorched cherry and nutmeg flavors fill in the gaps.

Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

Perhaps the most highly regarded appellation within Monterey County, Santa Lucia Highlands AVA benefits from a combination of warm morning sunshine and brisk afternoon breezes, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and fully. The result is concentrated, flavorful wines that retain their natural acidity. Wineries here do not shy away from innovation, and place a high priority on sustainable viticultural practices.

The climatic conditions here are perfectly suited to the production of ripe, rich Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. These Burgundian varieties dominate an overwhelming percentage of plantings, though growers have also found success with Syrah, Riesling and Pinot Gris.
