Abetina & Madrona

Abetina is our vineyard gem - planted with over 20 Pinot Noir clones, making it truly unlike any other in Oregon. The site was planted as part of the original Oregon Clonal Test in 1975. Whether it is the soil, site, age or clonal diversity, Abetina consistently produces the most intensely flavored, elegantly nuanced grapes of all the vineyards. Abetina contributes the soupçon of dynamic, stylistic character to Ponzi Pinot Noir Reserve each vintage. It is selected for a single-vineyard designate bottling in only the finest vintages.

Madrona is a ten-acre site, beginning on the South perimeter of Abetina. Its Pinot Noir vines, like Abetina, show tremendous fruit consistently year after, and are usually selected for the Reserve blend.
