2010 Luli Chardonnay Santa Lucia Highlands
2010 Luli Chardonnay Santa Lucia Highlands
Luli Wines
Luli Chardonnay captures the expression of the Santa Lucia Highlands: Very vibrant aromatics, pure fruit and mineral flavors with a long, elegant finish.
Grapes for this wine are sourced from multiple vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands. Working with different vineyard sites gives added complexity to the wines.  In the winery, fermentation and aging take place in a combination of stainless steel and neutral barrels to add various flavors to the wine.  The stainless steel vessels keep the aromatics bright and expressive, while the neutral barrels provide a more rounded texture without overbearing oak flavor.
Wine Advocate
91 points Robert Parker: The 2009 Chardonnay exhibits abundant notes of caramelized oranges, nectarines and white peaches in a tropical fruit-scented and flavored style. Terrific fruit intensity, medium body, wonderful purity and no noticeable oak make for a totally captivating Central Coast Chardonnay fruit bomb. Enjoy it over the next 1-3 years. Both of these Central Coast offerings are produced by Jeff Pisoni, a member of the well-known Pisoni family. They are both great values."

The Story

Luli Wines came about from a very special partnership between Sara Floyd and the Pisoni Family.  Sara is a Master Sommelier from the San Francisco Bay Area with many years of experience in the restaurant and wine business.  The Pisoni Family is from Monterey County, where they farm their eponymous vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands.

Together, they want to make wonderful and enjoyable wines that meant to be consumed on many occasions.   The Santa Lucia Highlands is one of the best regions in California to grow Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
