Tasting Notes
Shimmering white gold in the glass, Zephyr offers an incredible bouquet – white flowers, Dry Creek peach, lemon zest and sharp, piercing saltiness. The high-octane palate is dense and powerful, but lifted with a tremendous freshness. The vineyard speaks clearly of its coastal origins. Surprisingly open in its infancy, but would be worth checking back in on a few years from now.
