Winemaker Notes

Red Hills Estate Pinot Noir is known as the "serious" Pinot Noir, more masculine than some of our other wines, and characterized by pronounced blackberry and black cherry flavors, spice notes, savory nuances of bacon, and a long satisfying finish.

Professional Ratings

    From a vintage whose patterns (including full ripeness at sugar levels that still invited chaptalization) Matzinger likens to those of 2010 "and even more 2011" (the latter exciting from barrel, incidentally), the Archery Summit 2005 Pinot Noir Arcus Estate smells effusively of diverse, sachet-like dried flowers and herbs; smoky black tea; anisette; and distilled berry essences. Polished and expansive; suffused not only with a sense of animal fat but also of mouthwatering salinity; this delivers all of the floral and animal intrigue as well as textural allure that make Pinot especially worth purchasing, and finishes with haunting length.

Archery Summit Winery Winemaker Ian Burch Winery Image

In 1993, Archery Summit set its sights on creating wines of real purpose in the Willamette Valley. Since, the Dundee Hills winery has helped establish the region as the cradle of cooler-climate American wine. Winemaker Ian Burch and his team achieve bar-raising wines by way of earned instincts—the familiarity gained from many shared vintages, tending sites they know personally.

As responsible stewards of the land, Archery Summit engages in minimal-impact agriculture. Sustainability is a dynamic and vital part of growing wine, a practice that ensures both the industry’s future and the overall health of the trade. They practice sustainability wherever possible, from responsible farming in the vineyard to energy-sensitive approaches in the cellar.

Many of the vineyard sites are LIVE (Low Input Viticulture & Enology) certified, meaning they adhere to an internationally-acclaimed set of sustainability standards. These guidelines are site-specific and look to strengthen the well-being of the vineyard through minimal spraying, careful clone selection, heightened biodiversity, and more. Archery Summit endeavors to ensure that the soils and biodiversity of each site are as healthy and vibrant as they were when they found them.

Home of some of the planet’s most amazingly elegant and expressive Pinot noir, the Willamette Valley is a pastoral, mixed landscape of green, bucolic rolling hills, dramatic forestlands and small, independent, friendly wine growers. As a leader in environmental stewardship, the valley has some of the nation’s most protective land use policies, with two-thirds of its vineyards farmed sustainably and over half, organically. While the valley claims a cool, continental climate, and is heavily influenced by the cold, moist winds of the Pacific Ocean, its warm and dry summers allow for the steady, even ripening of Pinot noir.

The potential of Willamette Valley Pinot noir continues to attract the investment of serious growers and winemakers both locally and from abroad, as naturally the finished wines bring accolades from professionals and enthusiasts. With a range of styles from delicate dried cherry, raspberry and hibiscus to stronger notes of truffle, mocha, plum and spice, a fine Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a perfect expression of both character and grace.
