Snowgate
For more than a quarter century, winemaker John Paul has produced Pinot noir, Chardonnay, Pinot bianco and Nebbiolo from vineyards in the hills above Dundee, Oregon. Our 27 year old estate vineyard, Clos Electrique, is planted like an old-style Burgundian vineyard with multiple clones and it *&^^% knocks your socks off. Our partner vineyard, Abbey Ridge, is one of the oldest and most beautifully-farmed vineyards in Oregon. Our vineyards are sustainably farmed and not irrigated. You can purchase our wines at local restaurants and retail shops.
Every year, we put out a mailing with information vital to your survival.
