2023 Patricia Green Pinot Noir 'Chehalem Mountain Vineyard'

100% biodynamic Pinot Noir from vines planted in 1968 on Willakenzie series soils. 6 different clones and anywhere from 0-60% whole clusters. Delicate extraction managed by a combination of pumpovers early and pigeages. 12 months of 20% new French oak aging. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulphur. 

94 points, Jeb Dunnuck. "The ruby/magenta 2023 Pinot Noir Chehalem Mountain Vineyard is expressive and has a lovely wild touch with notes of sappy mountain herbs, sage oils, blackberries, fresh lavender, and wet stones. The palate is fantastic and medium to full-bodied, with ripe tannins and a long finish with notes of leather. It’s a pleasure to drink now, but will only improve as it leans into its more umami and maitake tones. Drink 2025-2040."

93 points, Wine Enthusiast. ""The 2023 Pinot Noir Chehalem Mountain Vineyard is the last iteration of this single vineyard from Patricia Green Cellars. Matured in 17% new oak, it opens with flinty tones that give way to bramble fruit, black tea leaves and violet. The palate is bursting with nuanced, floral flavors. It's framed by chalky tannins and vibrant acidity and has a long, fragrant finish.""
