WELCOME HOME The value of wine, beyond the sensual joy it gives us, lies in what it shows us – not only its own hills and rivers, but the road home. One Vision. One Wine. Retour was founded upon a dream of crafting a Pinot Noir of distinction from the Willamette Valley, a wine that achieves the elusive balance between expression and elegance, a wine that resonates with a spirit of place. Our guiding philosophy consists of working with a tapestry of some of the oldest and most precious vineyards in the Willamette Valley and partnering with Eric Hamacher, an artisan who has proven dedication to minimalist and natural winemaking practices. Some consider this approach to winegrowing Burgundian; we consider it the only true way to make wine that reveals itself and the place where it is grown. This is our passion: to offer you a wine that matters, a wine that – if you listen carefully – will show you the road home.
