Antiquum Farm Pinot Noir "Passiflora" Willamette Valley Oregon 2022
We really enjoy the wines from Antiquum Farm and what Stephen Hagen has created on his property. Using old world ways of dry farming using old school methods in a closed farm system (draft horses, compost, and natural weed suppression) the vineyard is treated as a holistic organism.
Over the years, the highest elevations of their vineyard at the farthest eastern and western edges have expressed captivating tones and textures rarely seen in Pinot Noir. Tropical notes weave their way through lithe texture and vibrant acidity, creating a wine that defies traditional notions of what the grape variety can and should be. As the treble to Luxuria's bass, the 2022 Passiflora captures the most ethereal and eccentric voice of Antiquum Farm in a stunningly elegant profile. True to the spirit of the vineyard, this wine is a Pinot Noir unlike any other.
