Hyland Estates, a defining presence in Oregon winemaking since 1971, stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Willamette Valley. Nestled in red volcanic Jory soil near the Van Duzer Corridor, its 51-year-old, self-rooted vines remain untouched and steadfast, embodying a "land not hand" philosophy championed by owner and winemaker Laurent Montalieu. By allowing the vineyard to remain wild and untamed, each block, elevation, and growing season shines through in the wines, producing richly textured, concentrated expressions of the land. Every bottle from Hyland tells a unique story—sometimes shy, sometimes bold—capturing the spirit of the vineyard and the vision of a winemaker who honours its timeless character.
The Estate Pinot showcases a vibrant bouquet of red cherries, layered with spicy undertones, black tea, and fragrant herbal notes. The palate is equally dynamic, offering a blend of ripe blackcurrants, plum, and a touch of peppery spice. Fine-grained tannins provide structure, while a fresh mid-palate keeps it lively. The finish reveals subtle hints of wild bramble and baking spices, leaving a lasting and elegant impression.
This wine is shines next to one of man’s favourite foods: bacon. We recommend either bacon wrapped scallops or a bacon wrapped Filet Mignon.
