Our Vineyards

Originally planted in 1998, this vineyard overlooks the first-ever vines planted in Oregon by the famous David Lett of Eyrie vineyards and is located on Breyman Orchards Rd in Dayton. The Vineyard  sits on a south-facing hillside at 430 feet elevation and is further blessed by the ideal climatic and Jory soil conditions found in this portion of the Dundee Hills AVA. We acquired this vineyard in 2013, and it has been producing extraordinary wines since 2001. The beginning productions from this vineyard were made in limited quantities of a few hundred cases per year under the previous label Saga Hills. The remainder of the grapes were sold to local wineries. As the vines matured and the roots ran deeper, the wines regularly earned acclaim and high ratings and were well received by those who managed to obtain them. The Armstrong vineyard consists exclusively of Pinot Noir Dijon clones 777, 114, and 115.

The Royal Potcake Vineyard, also located in the Dundee Hills AVA, is named after the Royal Bahamian Potcake, the breed of street dogs we help rescue. We acquired this excellent piece of land, which was previously a cherry tree orchard that had been out of use for decades. Our first vintage of wine has demonstrated that this site is exceptional, and we are excited to showcase its excellent attributes. Located on the north side of Worden Hill Road in Newberg, Oregon, we began planting our vineyard in 2017 with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier. By 2020, we had cultivated 17 acres of grapevines. While the Armstrong Vineyard is exclusively dedicated to Pinot Noir, we aimed to initiate our own production of Chardonnay and Sparkling Wine. To achieve this, we planted three different Chardonnay clones, along with additional Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. These three varietals will be used to produce up to four distinct traditional Sparkling Wines.

Our intent is to bring to bottle the finest Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sparkling wines possible. As our team of agricultural specialists tends to our vineyards, we continue to work with the renowned winemaker whose expertise is well known. Isabelle Dutartre has been garnering acclaim for Oregon wines for many decades.
