The wine is black, plush, huge, dark, rich, complex, and very very limited. We are so proud to be able to offer this extraordinary wine. Antica Terra began a decade ago with the purchase of a rugged 28 acre parcel in the Amity Hills region of the Willamette Valley. Yields are kept low to develop concentrated flavors, as well as to hasten ripening before the fall rains. The first release of Antica Terra was in 1994 and the 96 Pinot Noir was the first commercial release.
Current production is extremely limited.
Antica Terra is owned by Marc Peters and Marty Weber. Marc Peters and Faustina Ash moved to Oregon from New York in 1989. Marty and Ana Weber followed in 1990. Both had long time interests in wine and winemaking and were friends since college. When not managing a vineyard or making wine, Marty Weber is a first vice president and investment portfolio manager with Smith Barney's Portland office.
