Zena Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir ''The Sum'' (Oregon) 2016

94 pts Wine Advocate

Medium ruby-purple, the 2016 Pinot Noir The Sum is scented of Earl Grey tea, tar, loamy earth, lavender and garrigue with black currants and black cherries at the core and hints of smoked meats and peppercorn. Medium-bodied and silky, it offers an intense dark fruit core with grainy tannins and seamless freshness on the very long, savory finish. 433 cases produced.

93 pts Wine Spectator

Polished and plump fruit wraps gracefully around a complex backbone, with an expressive range and dusky spice accents that build toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2028. 433 cases made.
