Our Wines
Our philosophy of making wine at Youngberg Hill is to let the fruit make the wine. We focus our attention on producing the highest quality of fruit possible, and then managing the fruit through the fermentation process for it to produce the finest wine it has to offer. By limiting yields and restrained barrel treatment, we are able to give the purest expression of our vineyard in producing our wines.
2006 Natasha Block Pinot Noir
The 2006 is on its way to being Youngberg Hill’s best vintage ever. The Natasha Block continues to be a fruit forward wine with robust flavors of raspberry, cherry tart, rhubarb. Then the white pepper kicks in with accents of tobacco and leather to express the earthy components. The tannins are firm and well structured with a smooth finish.

2006 Jordan Block Pinot Noir
The 2006 vintage is Youngberg Hill’s best ever in what may be the Willamette Valley’s best vintage. The Jordan Block offers intense flavors of blackberry, plum, and black cherry with a floral note. It portrays the earth through forest mushrooms, cocoa, and black pepper. The finish is rich with a full and round texture. The tannins are very balanced with softness and structure.

2007 Natasha Block Pinot Noir
The 2007 Natasha Block continues to be a fruit forward wine with robust flavors of raspberry, cherry, cranberry, and root beer. Aromatics suggest black cherry cola, cinnamon, and caramel. Then the white pepper kicks in with accents of tobacco and leather to express the earthy components that are more apparent in the 2007 providing complexion and depth across the palate. The tannins are firm and well structured with a silky finish.

2007 Jordan Block Pinot Noir
The 2007 Jordan Block offers intense flavors of pineapple, blackberry, plum, and currant. It portrays the earthy minerals through forest floor, cocoa, and smoke. Aromas of black pepper, spice, and ash surround the hint of oak. The finish is rich with a full and round texture. The tannins are very balanced and structured, and need time to open up.

2009 Aspen Pinot Gris
Our 2009 Aspen Pinot Gris is the first vintage with our own estate grow fruit coming from the Aspen Block. The 2009 vintage is loaded with fruit flavors and complexity that is not always the case with a Pinot Gris. The aromatics include peach, grapefruit, mineral, and a hint of vanilla. Flavors abound with lemon, grapefruit, and peach with a nice hint of earth. It is fun to drink because every time you take a sip, you discover a new dimension.

2009 Pinot Blanc
The 2009 Pinot Blanc is another expression of the lovely aspects that Pinot Blanc gives to any food. The aromatics remind you of banana and citrus. The fruit flavors of peach, banana, and lemon are bountiful. The 2009 has richness and creaminess that makes the wine melt in your mouth, but lingers even with food.
