We are excited to receive wonderful reviews from Jeb Dunnuck on our 2025 Lucy vintage. “Remarkably elegant” and “a pure joy to drink” is how Virginie Boone, reviewer for Jeb Dunnuck, describes our 2025 Lucy Gamay Noir, which scored 94 points. Our Lucy 2025 Pico Blanco and Lucy Rosé of Pinot Noir each came in at 92. Descriptors such as “full of juicy acidity,” “citrus is the star,” and “pleasing in the glass” are tasting notes we are honored to receive.
Lucy is built from the Pinot Noir family of grapes, grown across Monterey County’s granite and limestone soils—from the Santa Lucia Highlands to the Chalone. This special Monterey County environment in combination with careful winemaking brings together elements that allow the Pisoni Family to craft beautiful, expressive Lucy wines. We’re grateful to Virginie Boone and the team at Jeb Dunnuck for the recognition.

2025 Lucy Gamay Noir
94 Points.Native-fermented with 40% whole-cluster, the 2025 Gamay Noir comes from granitic soils and is a terrific wine, full of juicy acidity, supple, barely-there tannins, and fruity strawberry, drinking like a white wine in many ways. It’s light to medium-bodied and remarkably elegant while also being unfussy, a pure joy to drink, aged eight months in neutral barrel. Drink now through 2035.
2025 Lucy Pico Blanco
92 Points.A blend of 70% Pinot Gris and 30% old vine Pinot Blanc, the latter coming from the historic Chalone Vineyard, the 2025 Pico Blanco is a playful, textured white from the Pisoni team, with crisp, lengthy acidity, raised in neutral barrels for a fresh, fruitier expression. Medium-bodied, citrus is the star, with hints of dried herb providing contrast and added complexity. Drink now through 2030.
2023 Lucy Rosé of Pinot Noir
92 Points.From the wider appellation, the textural 2025 Rose of Pinot Noir is from specific blocks grown for the wine, the vines typically younger and cropped heavier, the grapes picked early to capture the acidity and freshness that makes it such a pleasing wine in the glass. All Pinot Noir aged in neutral barrel over five months, it’s light to medium-bodied, dry, and fruity in wild strawberry. Drink now.
