Established in 1982, Montinore Estate is one of the largest producers of certified estate wines made from Biodynamic® grapes in the country. With our 200-acre Demeter Certified Biodynamic and CCOF Certified Organic vineyard located in north Willamette Valley in Oregon, we focus on producing superior Pinot Noirs, cool climate whites, and fascinating Italian varietals. Montinore Estate has been practicing Biodynamic viticulture since the early 2000s under the leadership or Rudy Marchesi, and the estate vineyard received Demeter Biodynamic® certification in 2008.

We utilize nutrient-infusing and insect-promoting cover crops, unique compost and sprays all improve the liveliness of the vineyard, all in alignment with regenerative agriculture practices. Biodiversity (the number and variety of species found within an ecosystem) is essential to maintain the balance of our farm, and these practices create richer soils with more diverse nutrients. Vines are broader with deeper root systems that incorporate these nutrients and minerals. We believe this is why wines made from Biodynamic grapes stand out in a crowd.
