What to Expect

Oregon has only recently emerged as a source for premium wine and is winning fans over to their somewhat earthy style of Pinot Noir. With vineyards a bit cooler than most of California's, yet warmer still than Burgundy, Oregon's Pinot Noirs feature a synthesis of ripe fruit, ripe structure and transparency that draws on the strengths of both. The wines tend to have a touch of earthiness and a sense of transparency that many Pinots from California lack yet the fruit profile, full of dark berries, is decidedly warm-climate in nature.

Whistling Dog Anden Vineyard Pinot noir 06 is an outstanding value. Dark cherry and berry fruit combines with cola, mint, and chocolate for a complex, richly textured Pinot. Anden Vineyard is one of Oregon's best sources of Pinot noir.

Allen Meadows, Burghound.com - Issue 33, January 2009

Whistling Dog 2006 Pinot Noir - Anden Vineyard: (314 cases bottled unfined and unfiltered at 14.4%; $33). This is not quite as ripe as the ’06 NSV with a more elegant if not as showy nose that is less lavishly spiced but perhaps even purer with restrained red and blue pinot fruit aromas that merge seamlessly into nicely rich and generous yet detailed medium-bodied flavors that offer good depth and breadth ...this is quite different from the NSV and like its ’05 counterpart, it is relatively understated in style...
