Vintage Collection
A unique collection of Dundee Hills Pinot Noir
Oregon’s finest pinot noir.
One exclusive collection.
24 Collector’s Edition Sets
ONLY ONE COLLECTION REMAINING
A master’s class in terroir and winemaking style awaits you…
Each year, the Dundee Hills Winegrowers’ Association offers a limited edition collection of 24 bottles of Pinot Noir, hand-selected by 24 acclaimed Dundee Hills wineries, each showcasing the distinctive quality of each winery within a single vintage.
This year we are proud to present the 2019 Dundee Hills Vintage Collection – a beautiful and a unique gift for any collector, enthusiast, or oenophile.
The fruit vibrancy of the 2019 wines is nearly electric, full of energy and displaying lively acidity across the board. The 2019 wines beautifully marry the age-old dichotomy of Old-World versus New. Fans of Old-World qualities like lower alcohol and earthy, rustic characteristics will be drawn to these wines; while. conversely, New World enthusiasts will love the freshness, invigorating fruit flavors and juicy acidity. Furthermore, the prevalent spice notes—a signature Dundee Hills trait— are not overwhelmed by high alcohol or overly ripe fruit characteristics. They demonstrate the purity and restraint so many have come to associate with the Dundee Hills, especially in cooler years.

This wine’s dark garnet hue matches its deep and rich personality. Fig, cherry and a bit of tru¬ffle waft from the glass while the first sip is characterized by cacao, black tea and a dash of rose and jasmine. An outspoken and engaging wine, the Red Hills Pinot Noir steals the room as soon as the cork is popped. Better still, there’s added depth thanks to some whole cluster inclusion and a complementary dose of new French oak (34%).
Argyle Winery
2019 Cowhouse Pinot Noir
Named after Argyle’s founding viticulturist, Allen Holstein, Cowhouse Pinot Noir comes from his salient vineyard in the higher elevations of the Dundee Hills. As Allen would have it no other way, Cowhouse Pinot Noir exhibits classical Dundee Hills refinement and silky texture.

This Laurène is a shining example of everything we’ve come to know and cherish from our vineyards in the Dundee Hills.
Domaine Roy & fils

Bursting red aromatics – strawberry, rose petal – are tempered by yeasted pain de mie, toasted brown sugar, and ripe stems. This is a far more accessible rendition of our Dundee Hills estate than the Iron Filbert bottling, with silky tannins and a concentration of sweet red fruit that – although not without aging potential –practically begs for consumption in the near term.
Wine description: Aged on lees for 11 months in neutral French Oak barrels. Coopers include Atelier Centre France, Taransaud, and François Frères. We practice native primary and secondary fermentations, embracing the micro-biome present in our vineyard sites. Produced with 21 days of skin contact, with very minimal extraction to keep the wines elegant.

2019 ‘Evenstad Reserve’ Pinot Noir
A brilliant ruby red color, the 2019 ‘Evenstad Reserve’ Pinot Noir expresses aromas of dark dried cherries, pink peppercorn, and saddle leather on the nose. On the palate, layers of composed tannins and savory characters of cherrywood, ground sage and dried shiitake mushrooms reveal themselves, leading to an acidic finish that lingers with soft and silky tannins. This Pinot Noir is beautiful on release and will age gracefully in the cellar for years to come.
Durant Vineyards
2019 Olivia Grace Pinot Noir

Dusky Goose
2019 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir
We have been producing our Dundee Hills Pinot Noir since 2002. Sourced from our Estate Rambouillet Vineyard and our neighboring Lillie’s Vineyard, this wine is a true display of the terroir we call home. Classic Dundee Hills nose of spice, black pepper, tobacco, and red fruits leading to red and black cherry, toasty oak, and baking spice flavors on the palate. Elegant and delicate with persistent soft tannins and seamless acidity from beginning to end.

Furioso Vineyards
2019 L’Altra Pinot Noir
A true cherry color in glass, the 2019 iteration of our L’Altra is ripe with notes of juicy Italian plums, cranberry sauce, and hints of tangerine. Following its fruity beginnings then, is a more rustic backbone of woodsy cedar and fresh rosemary. While young, the palate shows off a wonderfully pure expression of fruit, though never cloying – its notes of luscious rainier cherries, blueberry, and soft cinnamon are livened by a powerful acidity and evolving yet vibrant finish. We recommend drinking now through 2030.
Knudsen Vineyards
2019 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir
A regal Pinot with stunning elegance! Aromas of orange peel and cherry cola are perfectly balanced with red berry and baking spice flavors that grip the palate with delicate acidity and medium tannins. An Oregon classic!
Lange Estate Winery
2019 Lange Estate Vineyards Pinot Noir
Opens with a deeply perfumed nose of blueberry crumble, Rainier Cherry, Christmas Cake, dark chocolate, and violet that builds in the glass. A study in precision and elegance, the 2019 Lange Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir boasts black tea-soaked tannins that lend to the perception of overall silkiness as it fans out across the palate before it’s hemmed in by mineral flecks and notes of dried orange peel that emerge on the finish.
Meraviglioso Winery
2019 Meraviglioso Pinot Noir
Some dark cherry on the nose, she greets your palate with a bright fruit forwardness, that leads into a peppery spice that lingers just long enough to leave you wanting one more sip.
Native Flora
2019 Jaguar Reserve Pinot Noir
Jaguar represents the pinnacle of the Native Flora Pinot production. A clonal selection of barrels, anchored by 828 and Wadenswil, this pinot shows great depth, power and structure. When we first personified this wine with the name Jaguar, it was to describe a dark, stealthy, muscular kitty of a wine. It has become a very apt analogy for describing the wine on a year-to-year basis. The 2019 Jaguar is a bit lighter in build, still powerful but more tawny, less muscular. It is quicker than most of its brethren, faster and more agile among the treetops. This is a sleek, elusive cat. Cellar up to 15+ years.
Nysa Vineyards
2019 Estate Pinot Noir
This wine begins with an enticing aroma of cherry and candy apple. The flavors and velvety texture envelope the palate with notes of red cherry and raspberry leading to an extended finish of cardamom and tart apple.

Résonance
2019 Découverte Vineyard Pinot Noir
A nice and brilliant color for this wine, with an expressive nose of cherry, blackberries, wild mint, fresh liquorice and noble wood. Vibrant and energetic, the palate reveals a subtle balance and elegant floral notes. The finale is mineral driven, expressing the complexity of the Jory soil.
Sokol Blosser Winery
2019 Goosepen Block Estate Pinot Noir
On the nose, this wine shines with notes of red cherry, craisin, allspice, toast, moss and dried raspberry. On the palate, the cherry becomes darker, as the fruits and spice are joined by oyster mushrooms.
Stoller Family Estate
2019 Stoller Family Estate Pinot Noir
Over the last 29 years, our estate vineyard’s 108 meticulously farmed sections have become more expressive, each showing something unique and distinct. Because of this, our winemaking team seized the opportunity to craft an Estate Pinot Noir from our maturing vines.
Rich aromatics of ripe black raspberry, cherry compote, and black licorice fill the glass. The palate is generous, showing flavors of cherry cola, baking spice and a ferrous minerality: classic Dundee Hills.
Winter's Hill Estate
2019 Winters Hill Pinot Noir Block 8
: From the steepest section of our vineyard, Block 8 is planted to the Wadenswil Clone. The 2019 vintage is very fragrant and floral on the nose, with luscious red fruit such as raspberry and pie cherry. Tannins are full and spicy, with notes of anise on the finish.
