Luminous Hills, Pinot Noir LUX 2019

Following the theme of the vintage, the Lux, while always the wine from Luminous Hills with more muscle, flashes a fair amount of finesse as well. Drawn from a mere 3 barrels, it is a classic Lux blend emphasizing the Pommard clone on sedimentary soil at the base of the vineyard for structure, power and dark fruit, balanced with the highly complementary 777 clone from the upper elevation Jory volcanic soils, delivering companion higher tones of concentrated red fruit and minerality. Always a blend with longevity, the slightly cooler nature of the vintage should carry this one even longer.
