Bigger-bodied and more boldly-fruited if less subtly or alluringly-scented and flavored than any corresponding Penner-Ash offering, the Alexana 2010 Pinot Noir Revana Vineyard features cinnamon- and nutmeg-tinged sweet cherry. Not only forward but unusually plush for its vintage (perhaps in part, suggests Lynn Penner-Ash, due to the proclivity of many Dundee Hills sites to promote relatively high pH even in a year like this), this finishes with modest but attractive persistence and ought to satisfy for at least 3-4 years. I tasted the formidably priced recent releases of Dr. Madaiah Revana’s six-year-old, Dundee Hills Alexana project (named for his daughter, and with its 56 acres of vines located on Warden Hill) in the company of Lynn Penner-Ash, who has been overseeing vinification at her facility. (The Revana Family Vineyard in Napa relied until last year on a similar collaboration with Heidi Peterson Barrett.) For the impending harvest, this estate will operate out of its own new facility and Penner-Ash says her involvement will become “l(fā)ess hands-on.”Tel. (503) 554-5545
