91 Pts Jay Miller - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate |
"The 2006 Pinot Noir Nicholas Estate is more darkly colored and offers up mineral notes in its attractive bouquet. Velvety-textured, ripe, and layered, it is nicely balanced and has 2-3 years of aging potential. It should be at its best from 2010 to 2018. Nick and Sheila Nicholas purchased their property and began planting a vineyard in 2001. There are now 28 acres in production with another 15 acres to go. Their first vintage was in 2004 and their first vintage of Pinot Noir was 2006 in which a total of 1600 cases were produced, all from estate-grown fruit. Considering the youth of the Anam Cara vines, the future appears to be bright for this family-owned winery." -91 points- Jay Miller- Wine Advocate |
Description:
WINERY:
"The words Anam Cara are Celtic for "friend of my soul" and symbolize the long journey we have taken to make wine. Each of our wines is from the vineyard we live in and planted ourselves. In 2001, the family came to Oregon, purchasing a rundown walnut, plum and filbert orchard which was to become the home of Nicholas Vineyard and Anam Cara Cellars wines." -Winery
VINEYARDS:
"Located on a southeast-facing slope of the Chehalem Mountains AVA on the outskirts of Newberg, Oregon, the Nicholas Estate Vineyard was first planted in 2001. The elevation varies from 350ft-650ft and the vineyard rows are planted in a north-south direction, benefitting from cool, drying winds through the 99W corridor which keep mildew and frost pressure at bay. The soils are primarily Loess (wind-blown ice age sediment) with some outcrops of volcanic Jory soils and deposits from the Missoula floods. Of the original 27 acres, five 5-acre blocks are different clones of Pinot Noir, and there is an additional acre each of Riesling and Gewurztraminer." -Winery
WINE:
"This wine has Italian plum, wet soil, raw meat and vanilla on the nose as well as ferrous minerality, framed by subtle toast and vanilla. Sweet, rich and harmonious attack, with a flavor profile closely mirroring the nose. The tannins are rich and surprisingly soft, and the nicely rounded mid-palate rolls lingeringly into the sustained finish. Enjoy with duck confit, pork tenderloin. The lush fruit quality would also pair well with baked quail with mushrooms." -Winery
