A Sparkling Legacy
Argyle Winery was established in 1987 by Rollin Soles with a clear vision: to craft world-class sparkling wines in the unique, cool climate of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. From the beginning, our commitment has been to create wines that not only showcase immediate quality but also improve with age, standing the test of time. This meticulous approach has earned Argyle the distinction of producing the highest-rated sparkling wines outside of Champagne, according to the industry’s leading publications, Wine Spectator and Wine Advocate.
Extended Tirage Sparkling
Argyle’s Extended Tirage Brut represents the pinnacle of our sparkling wine craftsmanship. Aged for over a decade on the yeast (“en tirage”), these wines develop incredible depth, richness, and complexity while maintaining the freshness Argyle is known for. Disgorged on demand, the Extended Tirage Brut offers a unique tasting experience with vibrant acidity and layers of toasty, nutty flavors that evolve beautifully over time. This wine showcases the aging potential and elegance of Argyle’s long-standing commitment to excellence in sparkling wine.
Single Vineyard Sparkling
Argyle’s Single Vineyard Sparkling wines highlight the unique qualities of individual vineyard sites. Spirit Hill Vineyard offers high-energy wines with zesty, lean fruit influenced by cool winds, while Knudsen Vineyard produces plush, round sparkling wines with softer textures, thanks to historic vines planted in the 1970s. These single-vineyard expressions showcase the distinctive terroir and character of each site.
Estate Reserve Sparkling
The Estate Reserve Sparkling tier focuses on refinement and age-worthiness. Wines in this tier are crafted with greater barrel fermentation, hand-selected blocks, and a more precise blend, resulting in elegant, complex wines designed for aging.
Willamette Valley Sparkling
The Willamette Valley Sparkling tier is an introduction to Argyle’s sparkling portfolio, designed for fresh, easy consumption. These wines feature vibrant acidity and minerality, perfect for drinking young, offering the signature Argyle sparkle with a focus on early enjoyment.
The Willamette Valley Advantage
Our choice to establish Argyle on the fringes of viticulture in the Willamette Valley was deliberate, allowing us to produce sparkling wines with a distinctive edge. Argyle was a pioneer in using late-season-ripened Dijon clone varietals for sparkling wine, ensuring high natural acidity and a mineral structure. By growing Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier, we consistently achieve high quality across our portfolio, year after year, in this challenging yet rewarding region.
