DESCRIPTION
From a vineyard perched high in the Eola-Amity Hills of the Willamette Valley is Zena Crown. Located directly East of the Van Duzer Corridor, Zena Crown is in the path of more coastal wind than most Willamette Valley sites - delaying ripening but preserving bright natural acidity. The result is small, concentrated clusters with rich flavors and complexity, but soft tannins. The 2019 Zena Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir greets you with a developed bouquet of cranberry, rainier cherry, white pepper, and violet. The palate is expressive with layers of dark fruit, spice, crisp acidity, and caressing tannins. This is another standout vintage from Zena Crown and offers wonderful freshness in spades with an effervescent, harmonious finish.

"
A very pretty, properly Oregon Pinot Noir from Siduri, this Zena Crown vineayrd from 2019 is revelatory. Elegant and finely etched, with lovely, pungent floral aromatics backed by red fruit and spice. The palate shows fleshy berries, basalmic umami character, savoury dried fennel, and thyme accents. Elegance and depth are both on display."
