El Lugar’s 2019 Pinot Noir from the renowned Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria Valley is a finely tuned celebration of place and precision. Sourced from one of California’s benchmark cool-climate sites, this wine delivers fragrant layers of dried cherry, hibiscus, pomegranate, and gentle spice, with a subtle herbal lift and rose petal nuance across the nose and palate. It’s taut yet silky—crisp acidity and restrained grip provide structure while complex aromatics unfold gracefully. With around 13% ABV and Earth-friendly minimalist winemaking, it exemplifies the signature perfume and mineral elegance that have made Bien Nacido-Pinot iconic. Critically applauded, this vintage is already expressive yet built for refinement over the next decade.
