Wines

All of Ankeny Vineyard wines are estate wines from our 35-acre vineyard, located in the South Salem Hills in the Willamette Valley. The low-lying, south-facing slopes insure early ripening and uniquely flavored fruit.

Purchase of one case (12 bottles) or more entitles you to a 10% discount. Half-cases (6 bottles) get a 5% discount. Wine prices are listed below.  Shipping and packing is a separate charge.   

$5.00 Tasting Fee

 

2008 Chardonnay $15.00 Soft aromas of vanilla, almond and pear complement flavors of apple and lemon-lime in Ankeny’s new Chardonnay. It is a zesty companion to summer picnic fare, or a delightful refresher for warm evenings in the back yard.

2008 Pinot Gris $16.00  Ankeny’s Pinot Gris vines are rooted deep in the mineral subsoil bringing a unique flinty flavor to the grapes. Strawberry, orange and apple blossom aromas waft from our estate-grown and vinted Pinot Gris. It's pale pink color is due to soaking the grapes on their red skins before pressing and fermenting. MacIntosh apple, strawberry and tropical flavors followed by a touch of creaminess in the finish. Try it with grilled shrimp or fish.

Pinot Noir Rosé $12.00*   This rosy-pink wine has strawberry and lime aromas followed by green apple and grapefruit on the palate. Made by the saigneé method from Dijon and Wädenswil clones of Pinot Noir. It is a wonderful match for heartily seasoned shellfish, fish or chicken.

 

2006 Hershy’s Red Pinot Noir $15.00* Hershy’s Red from the 2006 vintage is a rosy garnet Pinot Noir with the aroma of ripe raspberry and red cherry.  It is soft and balanced on the palate as it develops flavors of blackberry and spicy cherry.

 

2006 Reserve Pinot Noir $32.00 Gold Medal Winner at the 2009 Northwest Food and Wine Festival. Bronze Medal Winner at the 2009 Oregon State Fair Wine Competition. Jewel-red ‘06 Reserve Pinot Noir offers complex aromas of roses, cherries, vanilla and spice.  It is soft and balanced on the palate with a fruit basket of flavors—cherry, plum, raspberry and a touch of tangerine. Drink it now or hold it for a year or longer.

 

2008 Maréchal Foch  $20.00 Silver Medal Winner at the 2009 Northwest Food and Wine Festival. A short-season French-American hybrid grape, intensely dark, distinctive varietal, with a wild fruit fragrance and a hint of floral. A taste of wild blackberries and pie cherries makes Ankeny Vineyard’s Foch a wine for lovers of the “Big Reds.” Enjoy it with grilled meat or vegetables, pizza, pasta or mild curry.

Ankeny Crimson $12.00  Ankeny Crimson is a dark, ruby-red blend of Marechal Foch and Pinot Noir, with aromas of violet, cherry and blueberry. Flavors of wild blackberry and black cherry are complemented by soft tannins and refreshing acidity.

 

Ankeny Amber $20.00 (375ml) Pinot Noir Dessert Wine Honey, apple, pear and orange blossom aromas and flavors make Ankeny Amber a luscious dessert all by itself, or as a complement to fruit pie, cheesecake or even chocolate. Try it with your favorite bleu cheese! The flavors and aromas really open up at room temperature, but it is also refreshing served chilled.
