Kelley’s 2016 vintage of this wine is 100% whole cluster, and is produced from the vines at the very top of Momtazi Vineyard with the exposition being both volcano-facing (east to the Cascades) and ocean-facing (over the top and down to face west towards the Pacific Ocean).
“The nose is deep red-fruited, exotic, and perfumed with some spice and subtle hints of round-scented, dewy roses. There is the classic touch of herbs and savoury notes, along with the classic minerality of this wild, beautiful, and powerful place resting on basalt from volcanoes.
The mouth is rich with red fruit and not at all heavy, but soaring and with tension, like the flight of a night dragon (well, how one might imagine that). Maybe with gimlet eyes of crimson that glow and watch. I call my Momtazi Vineyard bottlings my “night dragons”. It is fresh and has cool energy, as warming as it is. Even the cold fire is a fire, and I would drink this in either cold or hot weather (at cellar temperature, not room temperature) for different reasons. This wine, as collected and coiled as it is, is not tame, and I love it every year for that.” Kelley Fox, December 2018. 450 cases produced.13% alcohol.
