Product Overview
Winery Notes:
"The 2021 Sextant Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir is a dark and robust rendition of this typically light varietal. The wine sticks to its roots with classic red cherry and strawberry aromas, with layered umami like fresh wild mushrooms and wet forest floor. Up front, the palate is highlighted by a bright acidity you would expect from a classic pinot noir, but surprises you with vibrant fruits across the mid-palate and through the finish, showcasing notes of plum and raspberries with hints of clove spice."
