Winery Focus
Lange
In 1987, Don and Wendy Lange left California and followed their hearts to Oregon's North Willamette Valley. Fueled by a passion for Pinot Noir and a love of the land, they founded their winery on 30 acres in the Red Hills above Dundee.
Yamhill County, where Lange Winery is located, is home to most of Oregon's vineyards and wineries. It's no coincidence that some of the best examples of Pinot Noir in the world come from this area.
The Lange's first vintage consisted of the three varietals they embrace today: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay. Lange Winery is the first among a handful of producers to offer two styles of Pinot Gris, having pioneered a barrel fermented version of the popular varietal with their premier vintage back in 1987.
Some of the finest grapes the winery uses come from the Lange's own fifteen acres of Pinot Noir. To supplement the requirements of the 10,000-case winery, Winemaker Don works diligently with area growers to produce the best fruit. Known for his even hand, he crafts beautifully balanced wines, vintage after vintage. Wendy acts as the general manager, overseeing all facets of day-to-day winery operations.
