In March 2006, 30 wineries and independent vineyard owners representing over 55,000 cases of world-class Dundee Hills wine and 1,500 acres of prime vineyards united to form the Dundee Hills Winegrowers Association (DHWA).

Defining the Dundee Hills 'The heart and soil of Oregon wine' the Association highlights the unique relationship between soil, climate and vintners as expressed in exceptional wines.

Today, the Dundee Hills are known as the epicenter of Oregon's world-famous Pinot Noir country. Over 60 DHWA members, including romantic B&B's and world class restaurants are located in the hills above the small town of Dundee.

The Dundee Hills has the highest concentration of vineyard acres of any Oregon AVA, and is located 28 miles southwest of Portland and 40 miles from the Pacific Ocean.www.dundeehills.org
