Wine Description
The Lucia by Pisoni Susan’s Hill Syrah 2022, crafted by Jeff Pisoni, embodies the rugged terroir of the high-altitude Susan’s Hill Vineyard, where the Pisoni family carefully farms each vine. This vintage, a limited production from Lucia Winery by Pisoni Family Estate, exemplifies the power and complexity of estate-farmed Syrah. The dry, early season and low rainfall reinforced the concentrated, fragrant nature of this wine, resulting in a bold and intensely flavored experience.
In the glass, this Syrah has an opaque, deep purple hue that hints at the intensity within. The bouquet opens with vibrant aromas of muddled blackberries, stony minerality, and cracked pepper. Additional notes of elegant violets emerge with a swirl, enriching the aromatic depth. On the palate, this wine delivers a complex interplay of flavors—layers of cassis, blue fruits, and classic gamey nuances blend seamlessly with hints of bacon fat and peppery spice. The minimal crop yield and whole-cluster fermentation capture the essence of this mountain-grown site, while 22 months of aging in French oak foudre further softens the tannins without compromising the wine’s concentration or vibrancy.
Each sip offers a concentrated yet balanced structure, with building tannins and a mid-palate that maintains a gentle yet firm grip. This wine is crafted to evolve gracefully, showing even more complexity with additional bottle age. With an ABV of 14.1%, it’s best enjoyed now for its youthful power or cellared to develop additional elegance over the next decade or more.
Awarded 94 points by Jeb Dunnuck, the 2022 Syrah Susan’s Hill is praised for its inward, concentrated style and gorgeous depth. Dunnuck notes its beautiful blend of cassis, blue fruits, and gamey notes, enhanced by peppery and smoky nuances. With an ideal aging potential, this Syrah promises to evolve gracefully through 2037.
