The word is getting out about high-quality wines in a pouch or bag-in-box! Winter’s Hill is still the only Oregon winery embracing this new format, but critics in the UK and the US are starting to pay attention.

We’re proud to see our Pinot gris and Chardonnay featured in JancisRobinson.com. Subscribers can read the full article, but author Samantha Cole-Johnson focused on the importance of freshness in this format, telling her readers to:

“Buy direct; Freshness is paramount, and so, unsurprisingly, the top five scores from the US were shipped directly from either the winery that made them or the brand that produced them: Tablas Creek, Ryme, Winter’s Hill and the two boxes from Communal Brands (Hérisson and Schplïnk).”

We couldn’t agree more!

To celebrate, we are sharing our August FinalPour offer with everyone. It features our Pinot gris and Chardonnay in Double Magnum (3L) pouches. Get two and save more than 20% – just in time for end-of-summer gatherings and upcoming tailgates.

The offer ends tonight, so don’t delay! And you can get even more savings by using your Winter’s Hill Rewards points on this purchase.

Getting Ready for Harvest 2026

Each day when I walk through the vineyard, I see more purple berries. This is the most obvious and dramatic sign that harvest is just around the corner. It happens every year, but it’s still exciting.

While we are looking forward to harvest, our thoughts go out to the many people across Oregon and throughout the West who have been forced from their homes or worse by fast-moving wildfires. We are so grateful to the men and women working every day to keep our communities safe.

I am thankful that our vineyards have not been affected by fire or smoke, and I’ll be relieved when the fall rains arrive.

Cheers!
Russell
