Mattinson review of Pisoni Lucia Garys’ Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022.

Pisoni Lucia Garys’ Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022
14.1% alcohol, cork, Santa Lucia Highlands, Monterey County USA.

This was tasted on the Mattinson in California trail.

This wine is so savoury, with so much spice and fresh florals, that it smells like a herb garden gone rampant. My notes say “this is a real wine”. It’s muscular but not overdone. It's elegant and polished but there's a storm of berried fruit flavour raging beneath the sheen. 94+ points.
