Siduri
Zena Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir
2018
Eola-Amity Hills
$75
Description
The Zena Crown Vineyard, prized for its intensely flavorful fruit, is one of Winemaker Adam Lee's most sought after vineyards. His bottling is exuberant, showing a complex array of red and black fruits, savory underbrush, smoky mushrooms and toasty oak. Beautiful, juicy acidity keeps the wine lifted and fresh. Drink now or cellar for a few years to gain even more complexity.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
A ripe vintage from the Willamette Valley plays to the strength of Siduri winemaker Matt Revelette. Power and spice with ample depth and complexity colour this Pinot Noir from Zena Crown in the Eola-Amity Hills. Cocoa nibs, bay leat and mint accent black and red berries in the aromatic profile. The palate is lush and fruited yet amply savoury. Cherries, raspberry and currant are sprinkled with cocoa powder; there is a smoky flint element to this showy wine with a peppery finish, a bit chewy.
