About Us: The Winery

Soléna Estate wines are made at the state-of-the-art Northwest Wine Company, which was founded by Laurent Montalieu in June 2003 in response to growing demand for a premier, technologically advanced custom winemaking facility. Located on Orchard Street in McMinnville, the 115,000 square foot temperature controlled facility allows for winemaking under pristine conditions utilizing the best equipment available.

Each Soléna wine is handcrafted in small lots often using rotary oak barrel fermenters to achieve a complex style with intense fruit and finely integrated tannins.
