RATINGS

96Wine Enthusiast

...aromas of fresh strawberry, clove and mint on the beautiful nose...bright and snappy on the palate with raspberry, pomegranate and red-plum-skin flavors that play against an earthy backdrop of bay leaf, menthol and forest floor.

96Jeb Dunnuck

Dusty earth, blackberries, violets, and rose garden-like characteristics all soar from the glass...ethereal and elegant on the palate, yet has the classic Pisoni power and tension front and center.

95Vinous / IWC

A complex, highly perfumed bouquet evokes red fruit liqueur, incense and potpourri, along with suave vanilla and Asian spice nuances and a hint of cola. Concentrated yet lithe in style, offering palate-staining Chambord, cherry cola, spicecake and floral pastille flavors... Finishes sweet, smooth and impressively long, with building florality and discreet, well-knit tannins.

94The Wine Advocate

...wonderfully layered perfume of raspberry and strawberry jam, tangerine peel, dried leaves, amaro and loads of rose petal aromas with a super spicy undercurrent. The medium-bodied palate is über silky and intense with layers of fruit, spice, amaro and earth. It has a finely grained frame and addicting mouthwatering acidity, finishing very long and layered.

91Wine Spectator

Spicy, with subtle cardamom accents to the finely textured dried raspberry and cherry flavors. Vanilla accents show on the savory finish.

PRODUCER

Roar Wines

Roar is in the Santa Lucia Highlands of California’s upper Central Coast. It is owned and operated by Gary and Rosella Franscioni, who both grew up in the nearby agricultural communities. They have owned and managed vineyards since the 1990s but in 2001 decided to make their own wine. Roar grows and produces Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Viognier and Syrah. The estate’s limited-production wines earn glowing reviews. The Wine Advocate called the estate’s wines “sublime, elegant…”

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast, Santa Lucia Highlands

Santa Lucia Highlands AVA is a 12-mile long, narrow strip of an appellation wedged along the eastern hillsides of the Santa Lucia mountain range. Given its proximity to Big Sur and the Gabilan Mountain Range to the northeast, Santa Lucia a cool-climate wine growing district. Morning sun is often followed by maritime winds and fog in the afternoon, a weather pattern that prolongs the growing season and means long, gentle ripening of the grapes. Spanish missionaries planted vineyards in the district in the 18th century, but it wasn’t until the 1970s that modern winemakers planted vineyards and began making high quality wine. The district received AVA status in 1991 and today there are 6,000 vineyard acres in the Santa Lucia Highlands. Pinot Noir is the dominant grape planted, followed by Chardonnay and Riesling.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
