Gary Andrus launched Archery Summit in 1993, infatuated by Pinot Noir and the capacity the Willamette Valley seemed to have for it. The Dundee Hills in particular caught his eye, because it shares similar growing conditions with Burgundy, France, and some of the most acclaimed Pinot Noir vineyards on earth.
The spirit of site-specific wine persists at Archery Summit. We have assembled an impressive family of vineyards over the years: five estate vineyards and three grower sites covering four unique American Viticultural Areas.
The 2023 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir captures the essence of its celebrated appellation with a seductive bouquet of ripe plum, ocean breeze, warm spices, and a hint of cocoa. On the palate, luscious red fruits are balanced by elegant tannins, with a touch of brininess and mouthwatering acidity. The finish lingers with spiced oak and basalt minerality, reflecting its terroir-driven character. Ready to enjoy now, this Pinot Noir promises to evolve beautifully for years, offering a captivating experience with each bottle.
