April 23, 2020 - Alive and well. Such a powerful wine, which was typically the case for this vineyard in the hands of this producer. The winery mentioned they felt it might hit its prime in a decade and I won't argue with that!

August 20, 2019 - Like an older Burg, this bottle is a different wine from when it was initially released (one of our favorite vineyards from this fabulous producer), and has aged beautifully. Rich and deep with fruit, softened acidity and balanced with a long finish. Age shows up in the amber halo and in the earthiness emerging from the wine now....wouldn't sit on it too much longer however, as it likely will only go 2-3 more years max.

October 25, 2018 - 13.5% abv. Acquired recently on WineBid.
Was a bit concerned because of the capsule being stuck on the bottle neck due to what looked like an old seepage that had dried (but was slightly sticky). Indeed the cork was soaked to the top in several spots but with one obvious narrow streak going to what looked like a seepage spot (now dry). Luckily, the cork came out in one piece and with a nice "pop". There was some funky aroma initially, but that blew off pretty quickly.
Visually, this was dark and slightly cloudy with no sign of bricking.
Just a lovely nose, with fresh fruit bowl and maybe some rhubarb pie aromas. Didn't exactly fill the room, but was not shy at all.
On the palate, this was dense and burly, showing plenty of ripe fruit with a strong citrus and citrus peel component and a little spicy note. There was also a savory component that I enjoyed. Like many PCG Pinots, this had a fleshy, sappy texture to it, with good depth and slightly sharp acidity. Amazingly, there was absolutely no sediment, even though this seemed to be unfiltered!
This showed very young still, with years ahead of it (as long as the cork holds up). It's drinking very well now, but I think a few more years will allow this to soften a bit more. I was intending to save the last third of the bottle for the next evening, but my wife and I enjoyed this so much, we ended up finishing it.
Enjoyed this with Chicken Cordon Bleu, steamed broccoli, and Mac 'n Cheese. Good pairing, but not great. Finished the bottle without food over a period of 3 hours or so. -

October 22, 2014 - shared with connie and jim at Dressler's. cork showed leakage and upon pouring there was a little funk on the nose, but this dissipated during appetisers and wine was drinking fabulously into the entree course

June 17, 2013 - Lighter color pinot. Good representative of an Oregon pinot. Nice fruitiness as you would expect in a warm year but some nice acidity. Well balanced. Drinking well now.

10/19/2007 (link)(Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir “Goldschmidt Vineyard”) Single Vineyard Patty Green Dear Friends, I don’t have the ability to do any research on these at the moment - I’m sitting in the stairwell of a loft building in NoHo tasting an eccentric Italian apperativo with Joe Dressner - we’ve escaped the day two clean up from his tasting which was attended by hundreds of natural wine enthusiasts from around the country and judging by the continued mess, it’s going to be a long day. The apperativo tastes like crushed cardamom pods mixed with dried cherries - an amazing combination of flavors and textures but more on that next year when it arrives... Many of you already know about the success Patty Green had in 2006 so this will appeal to those of you that have been waiting for these to debut. In general, this crop of 2006’s shows more varietal tone and elegance than the 2005’s. I need to let them know this evening if we want these so please let us know your interest at your earliest convenience (all of these are severely allocated by the bottle and only a few dozen bottles of each are coming to our state): 2006 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir “Anden Vineyard” STRICT LIMIT 3/person 2006 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir “Ana Vineyard” STRICT LIMIT 3/person 2006 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir “Goldschmidt Vineyard” – STRICT LIMIT 3/person 2006 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir “Etzel Vineyard” STRICT LIMIT 3/person Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA OR5300 OR5400 OR5500 OR5600
