Wine Description

Amassed from multiple vineyard blocks and clones, this wine is shaped like an hourglass – it is rich and opulent on the front, then tightens across the mid-palate before broadening out to a lush finish. Expressing Autumn, Σ (The Sum) leads with maple syrup, broken twigs, freshly tilled soil, and blackberry on the nose, with dark roasted coffee on the finish. 60% whole-cluster fermentation bolsters the wine, sustaining the tannic imprint with wavy texture on the finish.

2 reviews for Zena Crown Vineyard Sum Pinot Noir 2018

  1. WS

    This deeply structured red is distinctive for its brooding black raspberry, dark baking spice and crushed stone accents that build tension toward medium-grained tannins. Best from 2023 through 2031. 450 cases made.

  2. VIN

    Brilliant violet. An expansive, spice-tinged bouquet evokes ripe red and blue fruits, cola, licorice and mocha, and a smoky mineral topnote emerges with air. Broad and fleshy in the mouth, offering sappy blueberry, raspberry preserve, vanilla and fruitcake flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Smoothly blends depth and energy and shows fine definition and floral lift on an impressively long finish that features rounded tannins and a resonating blue fruit note. Best After 2024

Pinot Noir grapes exhibit a distinct elegance. Their thin skins and tightly clustered berries make them susceptible to disease and challenging to cultivate. However, the rewards of this persnickety grape are extraordinary. Pinot Noir wines possess a remarkable flavor profile, often described as silky, with vibrant acidity, delicate tannins, and an array of aromas. Expect to encounter red fruit notes like cherry and raspberry, accompanied by earthy undertones, floral hints, and sometimes a touch of spice. Renowned regions such as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley in Oregon, and California's Sonoma County have become synonymous with exceptional Pinot Noir production. Each region brings its own terroir and climate, contributing to the wine's character. Burgundy, for instance,... Read More
 

Eola-Amity Hills, an American Viticultural Area (AVA) situated at the heart of Oregon's Willamette Valley, boasts a history of viticulture rooted in the American wine renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s. Nestled just northwest of Salem, this AVA spans approximately 15 miles from north to south between the towns of Amity and Eola.

One of the defining characteristics of Eola-Amity Hills is its unique terroir, shaped by ancient geological processes. This region is marked by hills formed through tectonic shifts and ancient lava flows. The key to its viticultural success lies... Read More
