Grape Varieties
Report
There's no question Pinot noir is the Willamette Valley's flagship grape, representing 69% of our planted acreage in 2019. But we're also known for great Pinot gris, Chardonnay and Riesling, and grapes less commonly associated with the Willamette Valley are starting to develop a serious following--including Syrah, Gamay, Melon de Bourgogne, Pinot Meunier and Gruner Veltliner.
