Argyle WineryArgyle Winery produces still and sparkling wines in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Their wines have received numerous 90+ point ratings from publications all over the world, and our customers prize these reasonably priced, delicious wines. Argyle Winery's sparkling wines are classically made and dry, with exquisite flavors. The Extended tirage, released almost a decade after production, has a devoted following among Oregonians. Owned by Petaluma Winery of Australia, Argyle was founded in 1987 by Australia's Brian Croser and winemaker Rollin Soles, and purchased by Petaluma in 1990. The winery has a popular tasting room on 99W in Dundee and owns 250 acres of vineyards, managed by Allen Holstein (Granville). Nuthouse Vineyard is named because it used to be a hazelnut orchard, Spirithouse Vineyard is so named because it is rumored to be haunted.
Do great views ensure great wines? At Lone Star Vineyard the vines are treated to a sweeping view of the Cascades, from Mt. Rainier in the north to the Three Sisters to the south. While the view is stunning, this low elevation, warm site is a magnet for the two forces crucial for ripening grapes: light and heat. As the first light of day peaks over the Cascade range, Lone Star Vineyard begins absorbing the full power of the sun. Located 15 miles south of Dundee in the Eola Hills, this 116 acre site, purchased by Argyle in 1996, is oriented to maximize the sun's light and heat.
