Willamette Valley Vineyards at Tualatin Estate
Tualatin Estate Vineyard, established in 1973 by wine pioneers Bill Fuller and Bill Malkmus, is one of the oldest and most respected vineyard sites in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Wine grapes from this 171-acre vineyard have produced world-renowned wines for more than 45 years.
Tualatin is the only vineyard to have won the Best of Show for both the red and white categories at the London International Wine Competition in the same year. Tualatin’s Pinot Noir captured the Governor’s Trophy, Oregon’s most prestigious wine award, two years consecutively in 1994 and 1995. This is a feat unduplicated by any Oregon winery.

The Vineyard
The name “Tualatin” originates from local indigenous people and means “gentle and easy flowing,” referring to the Tualatin River that meanders on its way to the confluence with the Willamette River. The site is located in the coastal rain shadows near Forest Grove, Oregon.
It is planted with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Muscat and Pinot Blanc. Our most recent plantings reflect the site’s affinity to ripening Pinot Noir, with 45 acres planted with seven different French clones, all grafted onto phylloxera-resistant rootstock. The new plantings are spaced at twice the plant density of the original vineyard to improve vineyard ripening potential by limiting the crop on a per plant basis. This will yield wines that are more consistent and structurally complex due to the clonal diversity.
Tualatin Estate Vineyard is proudly owned and operated by Willamette Valley Vineyards since 1997.
Vineyard Hike
Take a walking tour through Tualatin Estate Vineyard, one of Oregon’s oldest vineyards and wineries. Learn about the vineyard founder, Bill Fuller, his 50-plus years of winemaking and the world-class wines made from this vineyard. Along the way, you’ll gain insight into what sets the Tualatin Hills AVA apart as a nested appellation within the Willamette Valley AVA and basic concepts of trellising, harvesting and terroir influences on the vineyard.
This experience is $35 per person or $25 for Members and Owners. Tickets include tastes of wine offered throughout the tour and a $15 bottle credit to use that day.
Please dress appropriately for this experience. The terrain is uneven and, at times, steep. The tour is offered from June through September with alternate indoor options pending rain. This is a physical activity involving a moderate amount of standing; seating is available after the experience.
