In the Third Age King Turambar of Gondor defeated the Easterlings and conquered a large territory in the East, so the lands that were or would be Dorwinion probably became part of Gondor.
During the war with the Wainriders (1856), Gondor abandoned its territories east of the river Anduin, thus possibly excluding Dorwinion from its withdrawing borders.
By T.A. 2941 the heady wine for the feasts of Thranduil came from the great gardens of Dorwinion.
