Tasting Notes: Produced from our two best barrels of Sierra Madre Vineyard in a truly outstanding vintage, this single vineyard Pinot Noir exhibits everything that the Santa Maria Valley has to offer. Nose: dark Cherry, wild strawberry, bramble, rhubarb pie, graham cracker pie crust, and sweet cream. Palate: broader than most Lumen Pinots, warm and soft with baking spice and cherry confiture, spicy, star anise, supple tannins and a broad, long finish. 69 cases produced. A Pinot Noir with great aging potential. Drink now through 2049 or beyond.
