97 points Jim Gordon (JamesSuckling.com): "So pretty, charming and elegant, with floral aromas, light tannins and quiet vibrancy. Fresh raspberries, sour cherries, red cherries, rose petals and minerals give it complexity and appeal. Finesse, nerve and great balance. Drink now or hold. (Mar 2025)"97 points International Wine Report: "The 2023 Roserock Zephirine Pinot Noir from the Eola-Amity Hills radiates with a translucent crimson hue that hints at its purity and depth. The nose unfolds in waves of crushed pomegranate, cherry blossom, and ripe red plum, interwoven with accents of sandalwood, star anise, and fresh cedary herbs. On the palate, it is both supple and commanding, gliding across with notes of Bing cherry, blood orange, and spiced hibiscus that meld beautifully with its savory, stony backbone. The texture is polished and seamless, supported by ultra-fine tannins that create structure without weight. A gentle undercurrent of minerality drives the finish, leaving a lingering impression of rose petal and black tea. This is a stunningly detailed and harmonious Pinot Noir that captures the elegance, tension, and soul of the Eola-Amity Hills. This wine evokes the feeling of listening to a Yo-Yo Ma cello solo beneath an autumn canopy - refined, deeply emotional, and timelessly beautiful. Highly recommended and editor’s choice. Drink 2025-2040 (Aug 2025)"
96 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "A bright red color, the 2023 Pinot Noir Roserock Zephirine offers focused and expressive notes of wild raspberries, framboise, rosy perfume, and sweet herbs. Medium-bodied, it has ripe tannins and an approachable feel, with its underlying mineral focus shining through the midpalate and finish. It’s delicious now but will only improve over the next 6-7 years and drink well over the coming 15 years. (Aug 2025)"
93 points Eric Guido (Vinous): "The 2023 Pinot Noir Zéphirine wafts up with an understated blend of dried flowers, spiced citrus and wild strawberries. A stern mineral core and brisk acidity enliven the tart wild berry fruits. Youthful tension pinches at the cheeks, leaving angular tannins and admirable freshness. Drink 2025-2030 (Jul 2025)"
