Family History
Generations Run Deep
The Dowsett Family entered into the wine business in the early 1980’s. Our winemaker, Chris Dowsett, had just turned 15-years-old when his family bought one of Oregon’s oldest vineyards on David Hill, in the Willamette Valley. The family knew little about tending to the vineyard, starting a winery, or restoring their 100-year-old home, but eventually, they expanded the vineyard from 12 to 26 acres and created an amazing winery with their partners.
Our Process
Attention to Detail
We create all of our wines in handpicked, small lots with complete attention to detail and age them on lees. Our white wines are whole cluster pressed and fermented in individual lots, while our red wines are fermented in small containers and punched down by hand. The Rose is whole cluster pressed and tasted at each step, until the tannin and color changes.
