Pinot Noir · Dundee Hills
98 points from Robert Parker, and only 110 cases only! made.
“Medium ruby, the aromatics of the 2019 Pinot Noir Weber Vineyard are off the charts! Dark fruits are streaked with violet, burnt orange, botanicals and game meats on the nose, and the palate is equally concentrated and layered. It offers waves of dark fruits, an abundance of silty tannins and incredible freshness that causes the flavors to burst with energy and call you in for another sip. This singular, stunning expression is "a freak of nature," explains proprietor Jim Maresh, who only recently revived the single-vineyard cuvée from the Weber vineyard, 3.5 acres planted in 1983. Maresh says that unforeseen circumstances led to very, very low yields this vintage (less than 0.5 tons per acre), which seems reflected in the intensity of this wine. It should be very long-lived in the cellar.”
“Bright ruby-red. Red and dark berry, floral and succulent herb qualities on the deeply perfumed nose, along with hints of freshly turned earth, exotic spices and smoked meat. Sweet and expansive on the palate, offering concentrated bitter cherry, black raspberry and fruitcake flavors that turn sweeter as the wine opens up. In a slightly wild style, in the best sense, showing fine detail and spicy lift on an impressively long, smoky finish framed by slowly building tannins.”

Arterberry Maresh
2019 Pinot Noir, Dundee HillsJim Arterberry Maresh is only thirty-seven years old (in 2021), but is already becoming touted as the “Best Young Oregon Winemaker” in an article at www.avalonwine.com. His father’s label, Arterberry Cellars, disappeared when Fred died. Jim began “messing around” making wine in 2001, and in 2007 he revived the label as Arterberry Maresh, releasing his inaugural wines from the 2005 vintage. He may qualify as the first to represent a third generation in Oregon's wine industry.
