Agate Ridge Vineyard was established in the Rogue Valley in 2001 by the Kinderman family. Uniting a keen knowledge for business and a passion for wine, we began searching for the perfect vineyard site in 2000 and located a beautiful 126 acre farm that has been in existence in the valley for 100 years. With much excitement, the initial 20 acre planting began in 2002, which was followed by much exhaustion by the whole family. After planting over 15,000 grapevines, we seriously began to question our sanity as the enormity of our project sank in. As if we hadn’t learned our lesson, we have since added an additional 10 acres to our vineyard, followed by the completion of our winery in 2005. Today, we look out on our 30 acre vineyard estate and winery surrounded by magnificent vistas of Lower and Upper Table Rock and Mt. McLaughlin with a tremendous amount of pride. As our vision continues into the future, we carry with us our goal to produce the highest quality wines, while using the best practices, people and technologies with an emphasis on helping to promote the prosperity and beauty of Southern Oregon.

2008 Cabernet Sauvignon
Appellation: Rogue Valley
The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon features aromas and flavors of ripe black currants, blackberries, and cherries exquisitely balanced by deep, toasty oak carried on a medium-full bodied frame. While enticingly delicious now, the complexities will emerge with 4-7 years of additional cellaring. This powerful yet sophisticated wine will relish being served aside grilled meats, hearty cheeses and beef or lamb stew.

2008 Petite Sirah
Appellation: Rogue Valley
Exquisitely ripe fruit mated to minimalist winemaking produced this exceptional bottling. Deeply hued and intense, the blackberry, huckleberry, and wet stone aromatics precede a velvety, lush mouthfeel. Don't succumb to this wine's allure without significant aeration, or, if possible, consider 5-8 years in proper storage. Either way, enjoy this gem with grilled portabella mushrooms, steak and roasted meats.

2009 Primitivo
Appellation: Rogue Valley
Winemaker: B. Kiley Evans
Our 2009 Primitivo is an elegant, pure expression of Agate Ridge's unique terroir. Racy red raspberry and blueberry tones precede lithe red currant, cranberry and rhubarb flavors with a kiss of smoky oak. Well integrated acidity and balance give this gem a smooth elegant finish. Drink this tantalizing wine now but expect it to improve with cellaring for two to four years. Enjoy this wine with a bevy of food options but some of our favorites are pizza, rustic Italian cuisine and lamb.

Appellation: Rogue Valley
Our 2009 Syrah displays complex notes of dark ripe fruit, graphite, and lush spicy oak on the nose, followed by a rich, thick, decadent mouth feel. This wine is full bodied with a lengthy finish. We suggest enjoying this wine over the ext four to six years with roast beef, venison or charcoal grilled steak.

2010 Viognier-Barrel Fermented
Appellation: Rogue Valley
Our belief that Viognier is perfectly matched to our estate's unique microclimate was reinforced in 2010. Beautiful flush, rich, tropical aromatic center around peach, banana, and pineapple and are complimented by subtle honeysuckle perfume, and vanilla flavors. This wine carries its weight on the palate thanks to flawlessly balanced acidity and exquisite texture. A perfect pairing includes anything from seafood or chicken to Spicy Thai dishes.
