Arterberry Maresh Maresh Vineyard 2023 represents the absolute zenith of old-vine Pinot Noir in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Founded in 2005 by Jim Maresh Jr., the estate honors a multi-generational legacy in the Dundee Hills, producing wines from own-rooted, non-irrigated vines that are among the oldest commercial plantings in the region.

Old-Vine Distinction & Critical Acclaim

The Maresh Vineyard is defined by its 1970 and 1972 plantings on volcanic Jory soils. Jim Maresh Jr.’s minimalist approach allows the "iron" and "red fruit" character of this historic site to speak with total clarity.

  • James Suckling: 98 Points
  • Native Craft: Vinified with native yeast in neutral oak with zero filtration to preserve the structural tension of the old vines.
  • Biological Rarity: Own-rooted Pommard and Wädenswil clones grown at 500–800 ft elevation without irrigation.
Sensory Profile

Nose: High-toned cranberry, Italian plum, and lilac. Savory nuances of shiitake mushroom, tobacco, and forest floor emerge with air.

Palate: Medium-bodied and tightly wound. Vibrant crushed cherry and blood orange zest meet mineral and spice through the mid-palate, framed by dusty tannins.

Finish: Long and structural. A closing mineral note of bitter orange with a characteristic iron-like grip.

The Dundee Hills Benchmark

Within the Arterberry Maresh portfolio, the single-vineyard "Maresh" bottling is the producer’s most age-worthy expression. It sits adjacent to the world’s great Pinots, such as Eyrie Original Vines, prized for its "crunchy" ripeness and purity.

"A purist’s Pinot Noir, bottling the soul of the 1970s Oregon wine revolution."

Collector Notes

Maresh Vineyard is frequently cited as the "First Growth" site of Oregon. These own-rooted vines are a biological rarity, as nearly all modern vineyards are grafted onto rootstock. The 2023 vintage is a cornerstone for any serious Willamette Valley collection, offering a drinking window that extends through 2038. Bottles are verified for pristine label condition and perfect fill levels. High-conviction target for enthusiasts of terroir-driven Pinot Noir.

Recommended Serving

To showcase its intricate aromatics, serve at 60–62°F in a Burgundy glass. Decant briefly if enjoying in its youth to allow the mineral core to expand. Pairs perfectly with roasted duck, grilled salmon, wild mushroom risotto, or herb-crusted lamb.
