Patricia Green Cellars Ana Vineyard Pinot noir 07 - Tanzer score 91 points "Medium red. Sexy aromas of raspberry and blackberry preserves, cherry-cola and Asian spices, along with a floral topnote. The cherry-cola quality repeats on the palate, which also offers rose pastille and clove flavors. Becomes sweeter on the persistent finish, with no loss of energy or clarity. This is drinking very well right now."
Patty weaves her usual magic here. It's full of fresh blackberry, black plum, and a hint of vanilla cream. Balanced acidity and silky tannins combine with Patty's vibrant style. Drinking deliciously now, or cellarworthy as well.
Pinot noir made from Ana Vineyard fruit has a great advantage entering the Oregon Pinot noir market. Mike Etzel, co-owner and winemaket at Beaux Freres, makes the Ana Pinot noir and uses fruit from the vineyard in some of his wines. One of Oregon's best vineyard manager, Andy Humphrey, owns and manages the property.
Andy also sells grapes to several additional fine wineries, including Beaux Frères, Elk Cove, Il Dolce Vida, Laurent Montalieu & NW Wine Services, Lachini Vineyards, and Lemelson.
