Description

Siduri’s Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir showcases why this windswept appellation is considered one of the great Pinot Noir regions on the West Coast. Sourced from a selection of longtime partner vineyards along the sandy, rocky benchlands overlooking the Salinas Valley, this wine reflects both place and precision. Cool coastal influence, persistent fog, and signature winds contribute to natural freshness and balance, while diverse vineyard sites add depth and complexity. Thoughtfully crafted with measured oak aging, this Pinot Noir delivers a harmonious expression of structure, energy, and regional character that embodies Siduri’s enduring connection to the Santa Lucia Highlands.

RECENT TASTING NOTES

"The 2024 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands) is a return to form after the slightly light 2023. Dark and earthy but elegant and refined, the 2024 turns out lovely shades of juicy black raspberry, blood orange, lavender, underbrush and black tea. This wine has been scaled up considerably (now 12,000 cases), and the price has come down by $10, which solidifies it as one of the best value plays for readily available Pinot Noir in the United States. Polished and balanced, the 2024 is absolutely fabulous."
