  Popped and poured, enjoyed with friends over the course of an hour or so. The 2021 “Zenith” pours a light ruby color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing and holy whole-cluster Batman! Notes of funky strawberry, raspberry, pomegranate, and forest floor. On the palate the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes form the nose. The finish is medium+ and certainly has some Burgundian sensibilities. Wow, I really dig this and love the soft mitts that Vincent and his team are using. Lovely, compelling stuff and a producer to keep an eye on. Drink now and through 2036+.

  Solid Oregon Pinot. Bright almost effervescent acidity initially (I don’t think there were actually any bubbles) along with wild strawberry and spice notes. Firmed up with air, with the wildness of the fruit fading and tannins becoming more prominent. Drink or hold. Excellent balance.
