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

2016 is the first time that we have made this small block of Abbey Ridge Pinot noir into a single lot of wine. The 32 year old vines, composed of Martin Ray Massale, yield a very small crop.  Julia is aged for two years in barrique with one additional year in bottle.  Its nose is resplendent with blackberries, currants, anise, lavender and dark chocolate, its mouth rich with flavors that extend across the palate giving way to a long lingering finish.  The label represents a native Madrone tree which grows next to the vineyard.  Named  in honor of Julia Wayne of Abbey Ridge, this extremely limited wine (only 580 bottles) is elegant and charming, just like its namesake.
