Planted in 1978 and replanted in 2003, the Hopewell Hills Estate vineyard features 19 acres of incredible Pinot Noir grapes rooted in the heart of Oregon’s renowned Eola-Amity Hills AVA. Perched along the Van Duzer Corridor, our site benefits from the region’s hallmark afternoon coastal winds, which naturally cool the vines and extend hang time — leading to balanced acidity, complex flavor development, and elegant structure.

The vineyard sits on a diverse mix of soils, with the most prominent being Jory-Felderman silty clay loam and Woodburn silt loam — both known for their excellent drainage and ability to stress the vines just enough to concentrate flavors. Smaller sections of Dayton and Verboort silt loams further contribute to the complexity and nuance of the fruit. Combined with our elevation and southern slope exposure, these soils help produce Pinot Noir with depth, finesse, and a true sense of place.
