2011 Estate Grown Pinot Noir
Regular price $55.00
As a higher elevation vineyard, Luminous Hills required special attention in 2011 to ensure the crop load matched cool conditions of the vintage. The resulting yield of about one ton per acre was disappointingly small, resulting in just one blend, the “silver label”. But, with all that attention to detail in the vineyard, and the long growing season without accelerated sugars, or depleted acids, It is, without question the most complete and complex of the Luminous Hills offerings to date. Utilizing all four of the clones on the site (Pommard, 777, 115, and 667), planted on both the sedimentary and volcanic parts of the vineyard, this wine represents the big picture of what Luminous Hills is all about: a broad array fruit dimensions, texture, minerality, depth and length.
