2010 Lundeen Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.0% alc., 100 cases, $30. From Genius Loci Wines.
Sourced from Ana Vineyard in the Dundee Hills (40%) and Illahe Vineyards in the Willamette Valley (60%).
Aged 18 months in 25% new French oak barrels.
·
Moderately light reddish-purple color in the glass. A little
reduction upon opening blows off revealing aromas of red cherries, raspberries, cranberries and a hint of
tobacco oak. Light red fruits are featured with oak in the background. Gentle tannins and lively acidity make
for easy drinking. Decent.

2010 Winderlea Ana Vineyard Dundee Hills Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.1% alc., $48. This
vineyard is located on a north-south ridge at 350 to 450 feet. Owned and farmed by Andy Humphrey,
the vines are own rooted and date to 1976. Pommard and 777 clones.
·
Moderate light ruby red color in
the glass. Cherries are the theme is this outstanding wine. Aromas of fresh pie cherry glaze and rose
petals. The discreetly concentrated core of juicy cherries is accented with hints of exotic spices, clove
and a kiss of oak. Soft and smooth in texture with gossamer tannins. Finishes with a flourish of
cherries. Like cherry pie day at cooking school - cherries, baking spices and very interesting results.

2008 Winderlea Vineyard & Winery Ana Vineyard Dundee Hills Oregon Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $50. Own-rooted vines planted in 1976 on a 350’ to
450‘ ridge. Pommard and 777 clones. Owned and farmed by Andy Humphrey.
·
Moderately light reddish-purple color in the glass. Nicely perfumed mix of berries
with a strong scent of oak. Tasty core of red strawberries and raspberries and
chocolate-covered cherries with an underpinning of oak char that fans out on the
palate. Still a bit rough hewed and tannic, but offers some charming fruit that has
good persistence. Should improve in the cellar as the tannins meld and the oak
integrates further. Very good.
