Sonus Vineyard

Our vineyard sits in the foothills of Oregon’s Coast Range in the Willamette Valley and is farmed organically by hand. It is surrounded by forest, wildflowers, and fruit trees.

Beautiful wines come from beautiful places.

We farm Gamay Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and a little Trousseau Noir on volcanic soils, with 650 to 800 feet of elevation on a southeast-facing slope in the Coast Range. For each grape variety, we planted a wide range of clones to add complexity to the wines we grow.

Momtazi Vineyard

Pinot Noir

We also source fruit from the Momtazi Vineyard, a 240 acre site in the McMinnville AVA of the Willamette Valley, farmed biodynamically by Moe Momtazi. It holds a special place in our hearts, and we are honored to work with it each year.

Our Pinot Noir comes from a small 1 acre section planted in the 1990s to Pommard and 667 clones. The vineyard produces unique, singular wines with dimension and detail that will age for many years.
