King Estate Winery |
King Estate, located southwest of Eugene, Oregon, is considered the benchmark producer of Pinot Gris in the country. While the winery also makes Pinot noir and limited amounts of Chardonnay, it is mainly credited with bringing the Pinot Gris grape varietal into national consciousness. The winery was founded in 1991 by the King family. The estate itself, at 1,033 acres, is certified organic and includes 465 acres of organic vineyards, as well as 30 acres of fruits, vegetables and flowers.
