Luli represents a partnership formed by Sara Floyd and the Pisoni Family. Sara Floyd is a Master Sommelier with many years of food and wine experience. The Pisoni Family is known for their eponymous vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands and for Pisoni Estate and Lucia wines.
Deciding they would make a great partnership and noting the shortage of handcrafted wines at reasonable prices, they set out to create a new line of wines for this niche. To achieve this, Floyd and the Pisoni Family focus on purchasing grapes from multiple vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands and the greater Monterey County—California coastal regions excellent for growing coolclimate grapes.
JEB DUNNUCK 91 POINTS - "All destemmed and sourced from multiple vineyards, the 2023 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands reveals a solid perfume of red and black fruits, leafy herbs, loamy earth, and sweet spices. Medium-bodied and nicely balanced, it offers ripe tannins, an expansive, elegant mouthfeel, and outstanding length. While it may lack the singular character of the single vineyard releases, it leans more on pure fruit and will drink beautifully over the coming 7-8 years."
