Named in honor of winemaker David O'Reilly's wife, Anna's Vineyard is nestled in the high-elevation slopes of the Chehalem Mountains AVA within Oregon's famed Willamette Valley. This site is distinguished by its deep, wind-blown loess soils, known locally as Laurelwood, which impart a signature elegant structure and bright, focused red fruit profile to the wine. Owen Roe's approach to this single-vineyard Pinot Noir emphasizes minimal intervention, utilizing gentle handling, small-batch fermentations, and careful aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a beautiful expression of cool-climate Oregon Pinot Noir, balancing vibrant acidity with complex layers of red cherry, earthy spice, and refined tannins that reflect the unique terroir of this cherished family-named estate.
