Farming sustainably and crafting premium single-vineyard estate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines in Dundee Hills, Oregon
About us
LucidWild Estate is on the esteemed Worden Hill Road in the heart of the Dundee Hills AVA. The Dundee Hills AVA, located within the Willamette Valley, is internationally recognized for producing world class wines from its rich, red, volcanic Jory soils, ample sun exposure, predictable wind flow and close proximity to the 45th parallel. LucidWild Estate was planted nearly 25 years ago, is 100% dry-farmed and has over 26 acres of vines, including over 24 acres of Pinot Noir and 2 acres of Chardonnay. The vines face southwest and rise at an elevation from 600 feet to more than 800 feet. Our sustainable farming and ethos of “Putting the Land Before the Hand” has led to small-lot highly premium single vineyard wines reflecting an honest and authentic expression of the estate vineyard Our acclaimed winemaker, Isabelle Mounier, has been classically trained in Burgundy and New Zealand. She has consistently crafted top-rated single vineyard wines and produced some of the highest rated Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Oregon’s history. Mounier employs minimalist winemaking techniques of the Old World including natural and native yeast fermentation and long élevage time in French oak to slowly develop earth driven aromatics, complex structure, and length to connect the wine to the land. Our premium wines are crafted to reflect an honest and authentic expression of the estate vineyard. It takes LucidWild over three years to farm, ferment, and age each bottle of wine before we offer the wine to the market to enjoy. We release bottled wines only when they are truly ready to drink and not sequentially or for cash flow. LucidWild Estate is located within the Willamette Valley, less than 30 miles southwest of Portland and 23 miles north of Salem. LucidWild is certified under the LIVE Certified Sustainable Grapes (Low Input Viticulture & Enology), Bee Friendly Farming and Salmon Safe conservation programs.

🍇 Veraison magic! ✨ LucidWild Estate’s grapes are starting their seasonal transformation! 🍇 Veraison is when the grapes shift from growth to ripening as their sugar levels rise and acidity drops, setting the stage for perfectly balanced wine! Get ready to follow along with us all the way to harvest 2024! #wine #wineindustry #vineyard

🍇✨ Transformation in the LucidWild Vineyard ✨ 🍇 Remember our grafting project from a year and a half ago? We transformed our Pinot Gris rootstock into Chardonnay grapes by inserting Chardonnay clippings. Our 25-year-old Pinot Gris rootstock is now producing beautiful world-class Chardonnay grapes, thanks to the wonders of vineyard grafting. We’re thrilled with the healthy bunches we’re seeing and can’t wait to harvest these beauties from our single vineyard estate for our 2024 Chardonnay. 🥂 Cheers from LucidWild Estate! 🍷 #LucidWildEstate #OregonChardonnay #VineyardGrafting #Agriculture #WineIndustry #OregonWine #Wine #WineMaking

It's the height of summer at LucidWild Estate and our vines are flourishing as the 2024 vintage takes shape. Flowering happened about 10 days ago, and now the grape clusters are growing rapidly. Here's what we're up to in the vineyard: 🍇 Berry Formation: Berries are growing fast, setting the foundation for cluster size. 🌿 Shoot Training: Ensuring vertical growth of the fruiting canes for better air flow and sunlight. 🍃 Leaf Thinning: Removing excess leaves to improve air circulation, reduce disease risk, and optimize sunlight for photosynthesis and ripening. It's a time of rapid growth, with our vineyard soaking up the sun and the nutrients from the rich Jory soil. Follow our journey through the 2024 season as we approach harvest. Cheers from LucidWild Estate! #VineyardLife #LucidWildEstate #2024Vintage #SummerInTheVineyard #WineIndustry

Unearthing the Magic of Single Vineyard Estate Wines: Why LucidWild's Sense of Place Shines Through 🍷 ✨ Ever wondered what makes single vineyard estate wines like LucidWild's so special? It's all about experiencing a sense of place – the unique blend of soil, climate, and meticulous care that shapes each grape and ultimately, the wine in your glass. 🍇 A Taste of Place: Every sip of LucidWild's Pinot Noir or Chardonnay transports you straight to our sun-drenched slopes in the Dundee Hills. The distinct notes of our volcanic Jory soil, the gentle touch of Pacific breezes, and the warmth of our Oregon sun are all captured in the bottle. It's a true taste of place, a liquid postcard from our estate vineyard to your palate. A Commitment to Quality: At LucidWild, we believe in sustainable farming that nurtures the land and the grapes. Our dry-farmed vines dig deep for nutrients, producing smaller, more concentrated berries bursting with flavor. This hands-on approach ensures each bottle embodies the essence of our estate vineyard. 🌱 Authenticity in Every Sip: Our small-batch wines are handcrafted with passion and precision. We use traditional Burgundian winemaking methods and native yeasts, allowing the grapes to express their true character. It's a labor of love that results in wines with depth, complexity, and a story to tell. Connect with the Single Vineyard Estate: Upon completion of LucidWild’s SkyTerraces + WineCaves in the Spring 2025, we invite you to experience the magic of our estate vineyard firsthand. Walk among the vines, feel the red, rich Jory soil beneath your feet, and breathe in the fresh Oregon breeze. It's a connection that will deepen your appreciation for the single-vineyard estate wine you savor. #LucidWildEstate #SingleVineyardOregonWines #DundeeHillsWine #OregonPinotNoir #OregonChardonnay

Ever wondered what's behind the consistency of every bottle of LucidWild Estate wine? ✨ These DIAM corks may look like ordinary corks, and they are, but enhanced. Made from finely ground, purified natural cork, they eliminate that musty "cork taint" that can ruin a good bottle. Even one bottle with cork taint is one bottle too many. But the benefits don't stop there. DIAM corks ensure our wines age consistently and gracefully over time, so you can enjoy that same signature LucidWild single-vineyard quality and sense of the estate vineyard with every sip. 🍷 👋 Cheers to innovation, tradition, and consistent LucidWild pours! 🥂 #LucidWildEstate #DIAMcorks #corktechnology #nocorktaint #winemaking #wineindustry
