MEDIA KIT
Noble Estate Vineyard and Winery is a family owned winery located two miles south of
Eugene, Oregon in the South Willamette Valley. When choosing a name for his new winery
Mark Jurasevich was inspired by Oregon’s stunning natural landscape and Noble fir trees.
Each bottle of Noble Estate’s hand crafted wine brings a taste of the local terroir paired
with the view from the Noble Estate tasting room. Quality is essential and Mark ensures
that every bottle is at its best by working with the wine through every step. Protecting the
terroir for the future is also important to Noble Estate, which is why Noble Estate’s
