2024 Patricia Green Pinot Noir Reserve

  • 100% Pinot Noir Modern Classic in Willamette Valley
  • Best edition of “Reserve” Pinot ever produced at Patty Green
  • Beautiful for salmon, ham and Easter fare

Perhaps no other winery is more committed to telegraphing every nook and cranny of their vineyard holdings than Patricia Green. Their commitment to terroir has helped define what that even means in Oregon viticulture. This “reserve” bottling is comprised of 8 sites and is the most successful they’ve made in 20 years of doing it!

What we love here is the beautiful balance that splits the difference between the gravitas of Burgundy and the immediacy of California. There is so much mouth-filling flavor and nuanced complexity. Lots of dark fruit but married to that aromatic lift for which the Willamette Valley is known. Critics agree!

WA 92: The 2024 Pinot Noir Reserve, which contains fruit from many of the single vineyards in the Patricia Green portfolio, is elegant and energetic. It boasts pure, detailed aromas of red cherry, blackberry, bergamot, anise and forest floor. The medium-bodied palate is detailed and spicy with silky tannins, vibrant acidity that lures you back to the glass and a long, nuanced finish.
