Siduri Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands 2024

Santa Lucia Highlands, Monterey, California

Siduri Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands is a beautiful Pinot from Siduri Wines. For nearly 20 years, Adam and Dianna Lee, owners and winemakers of Siduri Wines, have been sourcing fruit from some of the most influential and well-known Pinot Noir vineyards in the country. Today, Siduri produces single vineyard Pinot Noir from 27 different vineyards stretching from Santa Barbara north to Oregon’s Willamette Valley. They have been fortunate enough to establish relationships with top tier growers/vineyards including: Pisoni, Van der Kamp, Clos Pepe and Page- Nord. All of Siduri's Pinot Noir is produced unfiltered and unfined in an effort to maximize the expression of these very diverse sites. Siduri is unique in the breadth and depth of their single varietal focus. Both native Texans, Adam and Dianna Lee fell in love with Pinot Noir in 1994 and have continued to evolve as winemakers, creating wines which reflect their growth and passion. "Siduri" is named for the Babylonian Goddess of wine, who, in Babylonian mythology, held the wine of eternal life. “To taste Siduri is to taste some of the best Pinot Noir made in America today.” - Matt Kramer, Wine Spectator columnist & author of New California Wine.

The wine offers raspberry, turned earth, violets on the nose, black plum, blueberry, and anise on the palate. Aged 10 months in 25% new French oak. “The Santa Lucia Highlands has often been referred to as the "Spiritual Home of Siduri" - meaning that while the winery is located in Sonoma County, some of our longest standing relationships in vineyards - and some of our best wines - are located on this narrow stretch of benchland overlooking the bountiful Salinas Valley. Vineyards like Rosella's, located in the "sweet-spot" in the middle of the cooler part of the AVA contributes freshness and vibrant acid, while vineyards like Garys' contribute dark fruit and structure. Soberanes, Sierra Mar and Kitewinder round out the blend with their own personalities, creating a wine that is truly representative of this incredible place to grow Pinot Noir.”—Siduri Winemaker
