Under the skilled hands of winemaker Craig Camp, Troon Vineyard has focused its efforts on southern French grape varieties that thrive in the region’s unique climate and soils. The vineyard’s dedication to quality is reflected in its diverse selection of grapes, including Vermentino, Marsanne, Roussanne, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Tannat, and Malbec—varieties known for their ability to flourish in the terroir of the Siskiyou Mountains.

Troon Vineyard practices Biodynamics with the utmost care, ensuring that every aspect of viticulture respects the rhythms of nature. The commitment to sustainability extends beyond just the vineyard, with the winery also certified by CCOF Organic both for the vineyard and the winemaking process. At Troon, every bottle is fermented with native yeasts, with no additives or new oak used in the aging process. This results in wines that are pure, expressive, and free from unnecessary intervention.

For sparkling wine enthusiasts, Troon’s Pét Nat and Piquette wines offer a refreshing twist on traditional styles. The vineyard prides itself on producing vegan-friendly wines, using only minimal doses of sulfur dioxide (SO2) just before bottling to preserve the wines’ integrity and character.

In an age where sustainability is paramount, Troon Vineyard is leading the way with its biodynamic, organic, and regenerative practices, offering wines that are as innovative as they are environmentally conscious. For those looking to explore wines that tell the story of a place, Troon offers a unique and flavorful experience that highlights the beauty of Oregon’s Applegate Valley.
