Owner and history

The Drouhin family's winemaking roots go back to Burgundy, in 1880. A century later, the House Joseph Drouhin ventured outside of France with the creation of the Domaine Drouhin Oregon, in the Dundee Hills of the Willamette Valley. Today, the Drouhin family's commitment to exploring and expressing Oregon's terroirs flourishes in Roserock, within the Eola-Amity Hills AOC. Roserock is the culmination of a rich family history that began in Beaune more than a century ago. Philippe Drouhin, a fervent advocate of sustainable agriculture, perpetuates this tradition as head of cultivation, alongside Véronique Boss-Drouhin, a graduate in oenology and specialist in Pinot Noir, who works as winemaker.
