Pott 'Lagier Meredith Vyd', Zinfandel, Mount Veeder 2022
Dr. Carole Meredith is the world-renowned as the grapevine geneticist who crunched the numbers on the DNA of Zinfandel and many other modern grape varietals. She also, along with her husband Steve Lagier, farmed 5 acres of Zinfandel, Syrah, Mondeuse and Malbec and produced the Lagier-Meredith wines that so many of us know and love. In 2022 she and Steve decided to retire and gifted us their vineyard. The Lagier-Meredith vineyards lie about a mile south from the Pott Estate connected by an old ridge road, an ancient way through the mountains from Sonoma to Napa. In our 20 years of being neighbors we have traversed it thousands of times back and forth with pies, pizzas, farm machinery and helping hands. We are not the only ones. The trail is also an animal super highway; lions, bears, bobcats, coyote and deer all use it for their seasonal commute. We are glad to see them because they are living evidence of the health of our ecosystem and our commitment to organic farming. We chose a few of our favorite trail camera pictures for the labels of our three Lagier-Meredith wines. bright cherry, black pepper, plum, fig, latte, bright wonderful acidity, lively, followed by an explosion of fruit and richness, round and expansive with tobacco, plum, black cherry, juicy and lovely, lingers forever with umbashi plum, nori and black cherry.
