About REX HILL Winery
REX HILL Winery is a dedicated estate winery in the cool Chehalem Mountains AVA in the northern Willamette Valley of Oregon, producing wines that reflect the character of diverse soils including volcanic Jory, sedimentary Willakenzie, and wind-deposited Laurelwood. A & C Phelps's 1982 Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir estate converted from a hazelnut and walnut drying facility — REX HILL. The estate's commitment to quality viticulture and site-specific winemaking has earned REX HILL Winery a respected place among the region's most consistent and genuinely food-friendly producers.
The Chehalem Mountains growing environment shapes everything REX HILL Winery produces. Diverse soils including volcanic jory, sedimentary willakenzie, and wind-deposited laurelwood define the estate's vineyard character, contributing the structure, natural acidity, and terroir specificity that distinguish the finest wines from this appellation. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris form the backbone of the portfolio, with each variety expressing a distinct facet of the estate's unique growing conditions. Winemaking at REX HILL Winery prioritizes transparency and balance over extraction, allowing the appellation's natural character to lead rather than winemaker intervention.
Visitors to REX HILL Winery can expect a genuine and unhurried tasting experience that reflects the estate's commitment to quality and hospitality. The tasting room provides an authentic introduction to the estate wines and the Chehalem Mountains appellation. Whether visiting for a focused flight or a deeper exploration of the estate's vineyard programs, REX HILL Winery offers the kind of direct producer experience that wine tourism in California wine country is built on — knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely connected to the land and the wines it produces.
