ROAR Garys' Vineyard Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands 2023

ROAR, the name the Franscioni family gave their wine brand, was inspired by the family’s passion for working hard and playing hard - paying homage to the Monterey Bay winds that roar through their vineyards and for the thunderous roar of a stadium full of sports fans. The Franscioni’s own the high altitude Sierra Mar Vineyard, the Rosella Vineyard, named for Gary Franscioni’s wife, and they co-own the Soberanes Vineyard and Garys’ Vineyard with Gary Pisoni, the reason why the apostrophe comes after the “s” in Garys’, and his winemaking/grape-growing family.
