2012 Harper Voit Strandline Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

14.2% alc., 405 cases, $35. Sourced from Antiquum, Bieze and Huntington Hill vineyards. · Moderately dark reddish purple hue in the glass. Alive with aromas even after an hour in the glass offering scents of black raspberry, plum, spice and vanilla. Intense and delicious on the palate, with a mouth filling attack of purple fruits with a hint of spice and cola. Finishes with length and bombastic fruit. Very forward and giving. Still aromatic the following day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle. Score: 93. Reviewed July 6, 2014 WINERY » ARTICLE »

2012 Antiquum Farm Juel Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

14.3% alc., 225 cases, $37. A meticulously farmed vineyard with native cover crops at a high elevation with thin soils. Clones are Pommard, Wädenswil, 777, 667 and 115. Aged in 40% new French oak. · Very dark reddish purple color in the glass. The nose is shy and brooding, offering demure aromas of purple and black berry jam. The deep berry and plum flavor tends to be more generous over time in the glass. A noticeable thread of acidity runs through the background. The tannins are mildly aggressive but the mouth feel is still plush. There is amazing length on the finish which displays a touch of alcoholic heat. The most reserved wine among the 2012 Pinot Noirs crafted by Drew Voit. Score: 91. Reviewed July 6, 2014 WINERY » ARTICLE »

2012 Antiquum Farm Passiflora Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

14.3% alc., 45 cases, $55. Aged in 60% new French oak. · Very dark reddish purple color in the glass. Nicely perfumed with scents of spiced marionberries, rose petal and vanillin oak. Deeply flavored with a full monty of blackberry and marionberry fruits that are beautifully offset by the generous oak treatment and fine-grain tannins. An engaging wine of uncommon presence that has a juicy cut of acidity in the background. This wine has all the components for a long life ahead. My only nit is the sense of alcoholic heat on the finish. Score: 93. Reviewed July 6, 2014 WINERY » ARTICLE »

2012 Harper Voit Antiquum Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

14.3% alc., 46 cases, $55. Pommard, Dijon 777 and Wädenswil clones planted in Bellpine soil at a high elevation. Formerly Old School Vineyard. · Dark reddish purple color in the glass. A savory nose of interest with aromas of briar, Herbs de Provence, purple and black berries and a touch of herbal oak. This wine really stands out from the 2012 lineup due to its dried herb thread in the background. Mid weight purple fruits are clothed in modest tannins and the finish and long and generous.
