2012 Estate Grown LUX Pinot Noir
Regular price $65.00
After a brief absence due to extremely low yields in 2011, the Luminous Hills LUX is back for the 2012 vintage. As in past vintages, the 2012 LUX is a marriage of select lots of Pommard and 777, a traditional distinctive blend from Luminous Hills estate vineyard, drawing upon the darker more voluptuous qualities of the Pommard on lower elevation sedimentary soil, balanced with the more elegant red fruit character of the 777 on the upper elevation Jory volcanic soils. The exceptional growing season in 2012 afforded the qualities we seek for whole cluster fermentation, from which this blend utilized extensively, delivering added layers of complexity, earthy spicy notes, and extended ageablility. Luminous Hills Vineyard is LIVE Certified and Salmon Safe.
