HillCrest Vineyard in Roseburg, Ore., announced it will receive a historic marker from the state agency Oregon Travel Experience. The marker will be placed at the winery in spring 2014 to commemorate the first planting of Pinot Noir in Oregon in 1961. Richard Sommer established the winery that same year and is considered one of the founding pioneers of the state’s modern wine industry.
