2021 Pinot Noir, Felix Hunter Vineyard

94+ Wine Advocate

Anaba’s first vineyard designate from this vineyard (because the fruit is showcasing spectacularly) and it’s debuting like a champ! It is expressively aromatic with surprisingly concentrated flavors and a silky, bright and pure finish.

About this wine

Anaba has worked with this vineyard since 2016, and the fruit has always been remarkable. We decided to make a vineyard designate wine as it is truly expressive of its location. The grapes were able to hang on the vine for a long time, slowly developing concentrated flavors while maintaining their acidity. As a result, rich aromatics of wild raspberry, ripe cherry, lavender, and orange peel lead to a complex flavor profile of ripe fruit, a touch of earth and subltle oak spices.

Owned by Jay Morris, this is a smaller vineyard tucked in the Green Valley region of the broad Sonoma Coast appellation. Defined by a cooler climate, it can deliver some exceptionally expressive fruit. It is planted exclusively to Pinot Noir with a variety of clonal selections.

Felix Hunter Vineyard

Jay Morris purchased this vineyard in 1980. Located just outside of the town of Sebastopol, just 10 miles from the Pacific Ocean, this small, 4-acre vineyard is planted to Pinot Noir.
