Planted in 1971, Hyland Vineyard is one of Oregon’s most historic and storied vineyards. Initially established by the guiding hands of Oregon Wine Industry pioneers Charles Coury and Dick Erath, the vineyard now stretches over 185 acres among the picturesque foothills of Oregon’s Coast Range.
Untouched, unmoved, and self-rooted, Hyland’s gnarly 50-year-old vines remain entrenched in the red volcanic Jory soil from their bird’s-eye view overlooking the McMinnville foothills. Pinot noir from Hyland Vineyard typically displays a silky structure loaded with sweet fruit and spice while retaining the fruit’s freshness, tension, and depth.
The Coury Clone, in particular, shows darkly colored juice with plush structure and bright fruit. Laurent Montalieu, Owner and Winemaker, believes that a vineyard must be left wild to truly show its colors — a “land not hand” philosophy. So, row by row, Laurent brings to life the individual expression of each vine.
“We have always believed in making wines that reflect the ground in which they’re rooted. With its self-rooted, unique varietals this historic vineyard offers the ultimate expression of terroir.” — Laurent Montalieu
