The Shunyi Cellars Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2021 offers a vibrant expression of the region with bright red cherry and plum aromas complemented by subtle spice and earthy undertones.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins and flavors of ripe black cherry, boysenberry, and a touch of forest floor, delivering a balanced and nuanced finish. This wine shares the elegant complexity often found in top Santa Lucia Highlands Pinots, reminiscent of the style of Rombauer’s 2021 vintage but with its own distinctive freshness. The oak influence is well integrated, adding gentle vanilla and clove notes without overpowering the fruit. It pairs beautifully with roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or grilled salmon, enhancing savory and earthy dishes.
Serve slightly chilled to highlight its vibrant acidity and nuanced layers.
