Founded in the early 1980s, the estate quickly established a reputation for careful vineyard management and wines that emphasize balance, elegance, and site expression. The Reserve bottling selects only the best barrels and vineyard parcels to showcase the estate’s highest quality.

The 1992 Reserve is now mature. The color is ruby with garnet hints. The nose offers dried black cherry, plum, earth, and subtle spice. On the palate it is medium-bodied with fine tannins and bright acidity. Flavors of red and black fruit have evolved into tea leaf, forest floor, and gentle leather. The finish is precise and lingering. A well-stored bottle offers a clear expression of Rex Hill’s early mastery and the elegance of Oregon Pinot Noir.
