Cameron Winery -- sustainably farmed, non-irrigated, Oregon pinot noir and chardonnay

The 2011 Abbey Ridge Pinot noir’s aromatics begin with a beautiful hit of strawberry/rhubarb pie followed by kirschwasser,Madagascar vanilla pods, lavender, black pepper and horseradish.  The palate evokes flavors of ripe strawberries and cherry pits.  Its bright acid and long lasting finish in the back of the palate is typical of Abbey Ridge.  Solid and clean, just like Bill Wayne’s DB5.
