This Eola-Amity Hills Pinot is fragrant with violets, wild raspberry, bramble, stone and a hint of cinnamon. The palate is graceful, silky and poised, with juicy plum, marionberry and blackberry pie, a subtle spiced earthiness and great length.

Scores:
Winemaking: Zéphirine is a barrel-selection cuvée from the Drouhin family's Roserock vineyard, made as a reference expression of the site by winemaker Véronique Boss-Drouhin.
Vineyards and terroir: Roserock is the Drouhin estate vineyard at the southern tip of the Eola-Amity Hills, on ancient volcanic soils, with a cooling influence from the Van Duzer Corridor. It is LIVE-certified sustainable. The name Zéphirine refers to the Zéphirine Drouhin climbing rose, known for its fragrance and beauty. In 2023, budbreak was unusually late, beginning April 30, then an unexpected heat surge and little rainfall compressed the period from budbreak to bloom to less than 45 days. Harvest started in September with healthy fruit, some significant rain arrived toward the end of the month, and the harvest concluded on October 5.
Family and history: Drouhin Oregon Roserock is part of the Drouhin family's Oregon work, alongside Domaine Drouhin Oregon in the Dundee Hills. Winemaker Véronique Boss-Drouhin, of the Burgundian Drouhin family, has long aimed for elegance and finesse in these wines.
