Abbey Oaks Vineyard is our only vineyard located in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA and is comprised of sedimentary soils of the Willakenzie series. Abbey Oaks ranges from 220 to 320 feet in elevation and is planted to a complex array of clones on a well exposed south-facing slope. This unique combination of clones, elevation, soils, and sun exposure ensures consistent ripeness and depth of fruit-driven flavors in the wine year after year.

The 2018 Abbey Oaks Vineyard Pinot Noir releases a depth of ripeness balanced with restrained elegance. On the nose, deep layers of fresh blackberries, marionberries and huckleberries, with a hint of vanilla and lilac, are met with a palate filled with dark fruit and a beautiful acid balance. The velvety smooth mouthfeel structured by tannins and mineral undertones deliver a rich and textured finish.
