Tasting Notes

This lovely wine is a tribute to the Santa Lucia Highlands featuring both the earthy and fruit flavors that this region is so well known for. It opens with dark cherry, plum and raspberry with beautifully balanced structure. It finishes with a hint of vanilla and clove on the long finish.

Food Pairing – The well-balanced earth and fruit in this wine make it ideal for pairing with foods with layers of flavors. Enjoy it with grilled salmon topped with rice pilaf and grilled vegetables.

Santa Lucia Highlands  

The Santa Lucia Highlands are perched on the terraces of the Santa Lucia Mountains. South of the Monterey Bay, this cool climate appellation benefits from a combination of sunshine and afternoon winds.  These intense winds slow down photosynthesis leading to a long growing season and allowing fruit to mature slowly on the vines for rich and vibrant flavors.
