For 27 years, Cricket Hill Winery has focused solely focused on produc-
ing premium quality Right Bank Bordeaux styled wines made only from
grapes grown on their estate vineyard in Southern Oregon’s Applegate
Valley. This rustic winery produces wines classically crafted in admira-
tion of the most famous Châteaux of France and typically known only to
dedicated wine aficionados.

“The Right Bank wines of Bordeaux are a favorite of the French people.
We fell in love with those wines on our travels to France. Unfortunately,
they can be prohibitively expensive, so at its founding we decided to
dedicate our winery to creating that amazing style of wine right here
in Southern Oregon.” said Cricket Hill Winemaker and Owner Duane
Bowman. Cricket Hill. decided to follow the French tradition of pro-
ducing only one type of wine. It dedicated itself to Right Bank Bordeaux
style wines in homage to the wines of that small region of Bordeaux;
premium wines of exceptional character made only from Merlot and
Cabernet Franc grapes.
