Zena Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir Slope 2017

At the Slope, the Zena Crown Vineyard shifts to face primarily south, encouraging perfect ripeness and maximum phenolic development. Symbolizing a dark winter’s night, Slope exhibits aromas of chocolate, sage, bay leaf, and smoke cinnamon with flavors of wild morel, allspice, and bacon.

The wine balloons out to a greater extent, past the mid-palate, then finishes with cleansing acidity. A Pinot that reminds Winemaker, Shane Moore, of instrumental dance music, great for the long nights of winter.
