Notes from the producer:

"John Paul, the irrepressible owner and winemaker of Cameron, founded the winery in 1984. After working out of a roofless warehouse on the other side of the tracks in McMinnville, we moved to our current location in the hills above Dundee. Here, we planted Clos Electrique, a 4 acre dry-farmed vineyard that included Pinot noir and Chardonnay. Clos Electrique was planted in a traditional Burgundian manner, using several different clones of each varietal. Over the years the vineyard has expanded to 7 acres.  Varietals now also include Nebbiolo and a field blend of white Italian grapes.

This wine shows the blend of dark fruit, earth and herbaceous aromatics that make Abbey Ridge Vineyard what it is. Notes of Black cherry, logan berry, and candied orange peel meld with mushroom, leather, and high tones like sage and sandalwood. The mid palette somewhat restrained with moderate tannin and a long, spicy finish."
