2012 Siduri Pinot Noir







2012 Siduri John Sebastiano Vineyard....$46.99
A wine of notable complexity, the 2012 Pinot Noir John Sebastiano Vineyard impresses for its nuance and pure pedigree. Red cherry, tobacco and orange peel all lend an exotic air that is utterly beguiling. There is a lot going on this marvelous, intensely perfumed Pinot. John Sebastiano is a new site for Siduri. I can’t wait to see what Adam and Dianna Lee come up with next from this steep, windy site in the Santa Rita Hills.

2012 Siduri Gary's Vineyard....$48.99
Richer and slightly masculine, with more blackberry, crushed stone, licorice and even hints of meatiness, the 2012 Pinot Noir Garys' Vineyard offers up loads of fruit and depth on the palate, with a sweet core of fruit and vibrant acidity. It should benefit from short-term cellaring once released. Drink 2015-2022.

2012 Siduri Pisoni Vineyard....$59.99
Classy all around and a complete wine, the 2012 Pinot Noir Pisoni Vineyard dishes out beautiful, mineral-tinged aromas and flavors, medium to full body and serious focus and vibrancy on the palate. This has the richness of the Sierra Mar and Garys', yet better focus. It will have 10-12 years of evolution. Drink 2015-2024.
