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."

About the cuvee:

"April frost in 2022 meant that our Dundee Hills blends highlight the high-toned notes from Abbey Ridge’s Road Block, with weight and finesse coming from the La Sierra Vineyard. Highly aromatic nose and a palate that is pure silk with ultra-pure fruit and an alluring resinous finish. In the 2022 vintage, our Reserve is a big step up from the Dundee Hills Pinot Noir with only a small step up in price!"
