2016 Kelley Fox Wines
Dundee Hills Pinot Noir Maresh Vineyard
100% Maresh vineyard fruit. 100% whole cluster.
$75 bottle
This stunningly beautiful vineyard in the Dundee Hills was first planted in 1970 by Jim and Loie Maresh on Worden Hill Road above Dundee. Situated on a mostly south-facing slope between 500 and 700 feet above sea level, these old vines planted in Jory soil produce Pinot noir with the most seductive texture. Maresh Vineyard is certainly one of the most sought-after fruit sources in the Willamette Valley, and it has consistently produced wines of clear transmission of site for decades.
“The 2016 growing season was clean, and the fruit was lovely to behold. I was very sad to have such little fruit from Maresh this year as beautiful as everything was. I loved the wines I did have even more for this. All of my wines this year were fermented 100% whole cluster.” - Kelley Fox
