2016 Pisoni "Estate" Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir

Bid on this bottle of 2016 Pisoni "Estate" Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir (97JD, 95VN, 94RP, 91WE). Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2016 Pinot Noir is another sensational wine from this Grand Cru terroir in the Santa Lucia Highlands. From broken granite soils and aged in 65% new French oak, it’s an elegant, finesse-driven example of this cuvée which tends to lean more toward a pedal-to-the-metal style. Classic crème de cassis, sous bois, violets, and rock, earthy minerality flow to a medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, seamless Pinot Noir that, like the Chardonnay, is tight and reserved. Give it 2-3 years, count yourself lucky, and enjoy bottles over the following decade." (06/2018)
