The Wine

We’ve really got a thing for old vines. Hyland Vineyard has been producing some of the most amazing and expressive fruit in the Willamette Valley since the first vintage in 1974. Old vines, much like people, are just more interesting. For this unique blend, we’ve selected five complementary blocks, all uniquely seasoned with time and unique in their own right, yet all working together in harmony. Full of depth, tension and delicacy, this is an extremely unique wine from a really special place.

In 2007, the Hyland Vineyard was acquired by Laurent Montalieu and Danielle Andrus Montalieu in partnership with John Niemeyer. For decades, the fruit from the vineyard has produced many award-winning wines from benchmark producers under their own labels; a legacy that still continues today. Each vintage showcases a specific sense of place from one historic vineyard site and individual clonal selections from some of the Willamette Valley’s oldest vines.

The wine shows explosively perfumed scents of ripe red cherries, allspice, vanilla, and freshly cut cedar. It’s juicy, powerful and vibrant on the palate with silky tannins that lead to an elegant and long finish.


The Winery

Hyland Vineyard is one of Oregon's most historic and storied vineyards. Planted in 1971, the vineyard now stretches over 200 acres among the picturesque foothills of Oregon's Coast Range. Untouched, unmoved and self-rooted, Hyland's gnarly 48-year-old vines remain entrenched in the red volcanic Jory soil from their bird's-eye view overlooking the McMinnville foothills.
