The third release for our "Snapshot Series" wines is a blend of Pinot Noir. Lucas was inspired to create this blend after he tasted a wine from the Jura region of France, known for its Pinot based blends.

In some traditions, Lynx have mythical powersof sight-even clairvoyance or the ability to see through objects or barriers. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, the lynx reminds us to honor Ceres-the goddess of agriculture-and the traditions she gave us. The idea behind this wine reflects a little of all of those. The tradition in American Pinot Noir is that is a stand-alone grape. This wine riffs on that expectations
