The Winery

Evening Land Vineyards

We are, first and foremost, faithful stewards of the historic Seven Springs vineyard, planted by Oregon wine pioneer Al MacDonald in 1984. On this dramatic east-facing slope, in the iron-rich and rocky, volcanic soils of the Eola-Amity Hills, Al MacDonald undertook what would become one of Oregon’s most recognized vineyards. Nestled against a forest of Douglas fir with views eastward to Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson, it is immediately evident to any visitor why Al chose this site.

Founded in 2005 among the boom in popularity that is the Willamette Valley, Oregon, Evening Land Vineyards is widely considered one of the best Pinot Noir estates in Oregon, and perhaps the United States. It is dedicated to producing world renowned Pinot Noir and Chardonnay predominantly using their Seven Springs Vineyard in Oregon, however wines are produced from California and Burgundy grapes. All grapes in the Seven Springs Vineyard are dry-farmed and is certified biodynamic so the resulting wines are a true testament to its terroir in the hills of Eola-Amity. Evening Land is a true benchmark winery.

Tasting Notes

WSM95
Juicier than La Source, this has demonstrative black cherry and plum scents framed by hints of woodland briar and dried flowers. The wine is both ripe and lean, with flavors of wild cherry sprinkled with herbs and flowers, generous and clean-lined. Like La Source, it has presence without pronounced body, persistence without weight—contrasts that make the wine completely seductive and suggest a long life ahead.
WS94
A delicate, ethereal style, light on its feet, with red berry and Earl Grey tea flavors gliding easily through the long, expressive finish. Gets more interesting with each sip, finishing harmonious and elegant.
