Product Description
The Luli 2023 Syrah Santa Lucia Highlands is a dynamic and expressive cool-climate Syrah—lively yet refined, it offers layered dark fruit, elegant peppery spice and a mineral thread that keeps it fresh and engaging. It’s both immediately enjoyable and worthy of short-term cellaring.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Hailing from the prized Santa Lucia Highlands AVA in California’s Central Coast, this 2023 vintage is crafted by Luli Wines. Sourced from vineyards with cooling maritime influences and well-drained soils, the fruit benefits from extended hang time that enhances depth while preserving acidity. Fermentation may include whole-cluster components (depending on lot) to bring vibrancy and structure, and ageing is carried out in French oak barrels (a mix of new and seasoned) to add subtle texture without overshadowing the grape’s varietal identity and site character.
Tasting Profile
Nose: A vivid wave of black raspberry and acai berry opens, accented by white pepper and subtle violet-flower aromas. Herbal hints of wild thyme peek through on the rim.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied with concentrated dark fruit—blackberry, plum and cassis—balanced by dry, chalky tannins and bright acidity. A savory core emerges: peppery spice, meaty nuance, and a fine mineral streak that gives the wine structure and lift.
Finish: The finish lingers with cocoa-powder, peppercorn and a hint of garrigue (wild herb) and graphite. The tannins are present but polished, leaving the palate clean, refreshed and ready for another sip.
