Process & Profile

Prince Hill Vineyards Dundee Hills Pinot Noir is an Oregon Pinot Noir sourced from the historic Prince Hill Vineyard in the Dundee Hills AVA of the Willamette Valley. The site is known for its Jory volcanic soils, which contribute to vibrant acidity, fine tannin structure, and mineral-driven elegance. Grapes are typically hand-harvested to preserve fruit integrity and vineyard expression.

Fermentation is managed to highlight purity of fruit, followed by aging in French oak barrels to build texture and complexity without overpowering the wine’s natural character. The result is a refined, site-driven Pinot Noir that showcases the classic Dundee Hills profile—elegant, layered, and age-worthy.
