Lucia “Lucy” Santa Lucia Highlands Ros of Pinot Noir 2023 750 ML

TASTING NOTES:Benefitting from one of the latest harvests in twenty years, the 2023 Lucy Rose of Pinot Noir is comprised of fruit slowly developed to optimum phenolic, color, and ripeness levels. Boasting a crystalline coral-tinged salmon hue, this shimmering rose presents itself with aromas of vibrant orange peel, ruby grapefruit, rose petal, and crisp strawberry. With time in the glass, more notes of melon and stone fruit dance with a soft, yet chalky minerality. This voluminous wines acidity zips across the palate with pure expressions of near-ripe raspberry, blood orange, and a hint of watermelon. A distinguished characteristic of Lucy Rose is the slight salinity it carries, as if born from the sea air itself. Subtle texture envelopes the palate that is brought on from aging in exclusively neutral, 100% French oak barrels up to the moment of bottling. The energetic acidity in this rose brings about a stunning and refreshing taste of the Santa Lucia Highlands.
