Patricia Green Cellars
Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir
Ribbon Ridge, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Limpid ruby-red. Spice-laced red and blue fruit and floral aromas pick up a smoky nuance with air. Sweet and expansive on the palate, offering vibrant raspberry and blueberry along with subtle rhubarb and floral pastille notes. The clinging, gently sweet finish shows very good clarity and smooth tannins. 25% new oak. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2020)

Medium reddish purple in color with aromas of red berries, cherry cola, spice cake, and hints of earth. Medium bodied with good concentration and balance on the palate finishing with silky tannins. Sourced from their estate vineyard in the Ribbon Ridge AVA including a mixture of Pinot Noir clones planted between 1984 and 1990 in thin marine sedimentary soils. Made with one third whole clusters and only 8% new French oak. 14% alcohol.

Jun 28th, 2018Vivid red. Deep-pitched aromas of fresh blackberry and cherry show hints of violet, cola and orange zest in the background. Supple and broad in the mouth; juicy dark fruit and floral pastille flavors are given lift and spine by a jolt of tangy acidity. Powerful yet lithe, finishing with solid thrust, sneaky tannins and very good length. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, Dec 2016)

From my favorite AVA in Willamette, Ribbon Ridge, the '07 Patricia Green Pinot Noir 'Estate' is a clear medium red. Sweet-tart cherry, spice box, tar and incense aromas erupt from the glass. Medium-bodied with assertive dark berry flavors that flood the rich mid-palate. Finely textured with a long sappy finish.

From 375. Surprisingly primary. Tart black cherry. Reminds me of a too young Beaune red. Wish I had more, and in 750. This has longevity.

Mar 13th, 2016Tart red fruit, savory herbs, wild flowers & dry earth. Delicious despite or because of difficult vintage?
