2010 Sierra Mar Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands)
$55
The 2010 Sierra Mar Pinot Noir is a juicy, expressive wine with good richness in its dark red fruit, menthol, licorice and spices. The fleshiness of Sierra Mar comes through nicely, albeit in an understated style. Sierra Mar is a young site that is just beginning to give its first crops, so understanding the qualities of the vineyard is basically impossible at this stage, but I expected a fleshier wine, given the presence of Dijon and Pisoni clones. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2015 - August 31, 2012 Issue #202
