The windswept and fog laden Pisoni Estate Vineyards are situated near the northeast corner of the Santa Lucia Highlands. The vineyards are separated into 30 individually farmed blocks and sub-blocks that range from one half to 17-acres in size with varying soil types, microclimates, elevations and slopes. Each plot is given a name that pays homage to family members and laborers that have influenced this parcel of land.

This wine has a seductive appeal that you would only discover in a top Premier Cru Meursault. The glistening sunshine yellow color unveils a fragrant bouquet of Bosc pear and citrus oil. There is a silky texture of candied stone fruits, Meyer lemons, honeysuckle and orange blossoms along with delicate accents of white peach and finely crushed seashells. The silky laden and creamy core has a beautiful delineation of richness that is effortlessly balanced with lively, refreshing acidity. The finish is racy, pure and long showcasing the artistry of the Pisoni Family.
