L’Angolo Estate

L’Angolo Estate is a 100% Estate Winery, everything that happens, happens on their 25 acre property.  It includes 20 acres of vines, 100% organic. 16 of the acres are Pinot Noir grapes and 4 acres are planted in Chardonnay.  Then they farm the property with 100 percent organic methods to make an incredible wine.

Part of the reason the wine is so good at L’Angolo Estate is the Jory soil for which Oregon’s Dundee Hills are famous covers the vast majority of the east-facing slope, accompanied by a small, stonier section of Nekia soil by the on-site winery.  So they have planted 4 clones of Pinot Noir and two clones of Chardonnay across 13 clone-specific vineyard blocks to make the most of the site’s geologic variation. 

The tasting room that sits at the top of the hill is a modern design meets classic Northwest architecture building.  Clear fir ceilings, glass walls, and a long concrete bar create an inviting, luminous interior. Outside, the patio and lawn boast comfortable seating and a stockpile of Pendleton wool blankets that invite you to relax any time of year. 

No matter where you are on the property, you can look out over the vineyard onto Mt. Hood in the east, Chehalem Mountain to the North, and a steep ridge of evergreen trees to the south and understand why this is one of our favorite wineries to visit in all of Oregon.

The beauty at L’Angolo Estate draws you in – the wine keeps you coming back.  The vision of Chase Renton (owner and winemaker) is evident in the property and the wine.  He has created a wonderful wine and an amazing place to enjoy friends and family.  Cheers!
