Media Roundup: Dundee Hills Wineries Make Headlines
Known for exceptional vintages crafted from Burgundian varietals that thrive in the cool climate and Jory soil, the Dundee Hills is cementing its status as a must-visit destination for seasoned wine enthusiasts and newcomers alike!
- At the Decanter Wine World Awards, a panel of judges tasted 17,000 wines from around the world. The top .3% of wines were selected for the Best in Show honors, and Domaine Serene’s 2023 Aspect Pinot Noir was one of two from across the country with a score of 97. Alexana Estate Vineyard’s 2023 Pinot Noir followed right behind with a 97. In total, 14 Dundee Hills wines were honored by the expert panel.
“There’s never been a better time to be a wine drinker,” said Pierre Mansour, a judge and regional chair of the Decanter World Wine Awards, at a preview tasting of the top wines for 2026. “We are in a golden era. It’s extraordinary.”
“Although it [the United States] is the fastest-growing wine market in the world, it’s still a relatively newish wine market, and so there’s just so much opportunity.”
- Vogue featured a roundup of the best wine cave tasting experiences around the world, naming Archery Summit among them. Wine caves are carved into rock and offer the perfect environment for storing bottles: naturally cool, dark, and high in moisture.
- Forbes featured Van Duzer Vineyards for their important work protecting the Fender’s blue butterfly through habitat restoration and sustainable winemaking practices. Van Duzer just opened a new tasting room in the Dundee Hills.
