Founded in the early 1980s, REX HILL has earned a decades long reputation as a respected leader in the growth of Oregon wine. Named for a notable slope in the Chehalem Mountains, once crossed by the Portland & Western train line, the winery sits at a historic gateway to Oregon wine country.
REX HILL is committed to thoughtful stewardship of land, people, and process. From sustainable vineyard practices to long‑term investment in our community, every decision is made with care and accountability. Our commitment reflects a belief that great wine is inseparable from respect for the environment and the people who shape it.
REX HILL winemaking is rooted in balance—between art and science, tradition and adaptation. An influence that came from the original founders, an actuary and an artist. Native fermentations, whole‑cluster inclusion, and thoughtful blending are used not as signatures, but as tools to reflect what the vineyard gives each year. The result is Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that are full‑bodied yet precise, layered without excess, and expressive of both vintage and place.
Every vineyard has a story to tell. The French call it terroir, which refers to a sense of place, the sum of the geographical effects that influence the grape and, in the end, the wine made from it. Discover the sites that shape our wines and the unique qualities they bring to each bottle.
