Dundee Hills Pinot Noir Vertical Itineraries



The Dundee Hills have a long history with Pinot Noir. In some ways, they’re two sides of the same coin. It was Pinot Noir that first brought fame to the region in the ‘70s, and it’s been Pinot Noir that has drawn winemakers, collectors and enthusiasts from around the world to the Willamette Valley where they can see the Jory soil, taste the terroir, and experience the exceptional vintages from the Dundee Hills.

Explore these three itineraries, each featuring Pinot Noir vertical tastings, which offer the same varietal of wine, produced from the same winery across several vintages (years). There’s no better way to experience the influence of soil, climate and winemaking style.
