Dunites Pinot Noir, San Luis Obispo Coast, California

Like sea spray on coastal cliffs or the first sun-warmed strawberry of spring, Dunites' 2023 Pinot Noir from the SLO Coast captures a wild elegance that feels distinctly Californian — yet beautifully restrained. This is Pinot Noir in its purest form: hand-harvested, whole-cluster kissed, and gently coaxed to life with native yeasts in neutral oak. Tyler and Rachel Eck once again deliver a wine that honors the quiet power of their wind-swept vineyards — a wine that hums with energy, brightness, and the gentle rhythm of the Pacific just beyond the vines.
