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 a beautifully balanced structure. It finishes with a hint of vanilla and clove on the long finish.
The well-balanced earth and fruit in this wine make it ideal for pairing with foods with layers of flavors. Enjoy with grilled pork tenderloin, roast turkey, creamy mushroom pasta, or BBQ ribs.
Vineyard
The 2021 CRŪ Winery SLH Pinot Noir was sourced from the Smith & Lindley vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands. The vineyard is strongly influenced by the Pacific Ocean with foggy mornings and cool windy afternoons that provide a long, cool growing season ideal for Pinot Noir.
