Picture

Archetype12 Wines is an Oregon winery forging artisanal wines based on the ethos and personalities of 12 primary Archetypes.

We hope that you find yourself, through the traits and Archetypes you personify, reflected in our wines!


Terroir Incognito, is our urban-foraged cider project, driven by a commitment to
sustainability and community, relying on crowd-sourced fruit to craft progressive Basque-inspired ciders and other libations. 
​
Everything we do is in the name of collaboration and efforts to forge stronger community ties between all.

meet the archetypes

The Archetypes are the core expression of our winemaking philosophy.
Working with the best fruit we can find each year, we craft wine, see what personality traits it portrays, and forge it as one of the 12 Primary Archetypes. When we produce another wine that mirrors the same characteristics as V.2021's The Sovereign, for instance, it may not be Mourvèdre, or even from the same region, but it will maintain that same sense of decadence and regality.

If you find you resonate with one or more Archetypes, we hope you will try each future expression as forged.
