Our History
Our plants were raised from cuttings of Dijon 115 clones started in 2000. Our "babies" were rooted, with our first planting in 2002.  We harvested our first crop in 2006 with the fruit being used to make J Scott Cellars Pinot Noir.   We continued to supply fruit to Jonathan through 2008 for his J Scott label. www.jscottcellars.com
2009 was a lesson year .  We had some equipment breakdowns and the fruit did not meet our quality standards.
Valuable lessons were certainly learned.
2010 & 2011 fruit was also used on the J Scott Cellars label, however our fruit earned its first Vineyard Designate on the label 
​Our 2012 harvest gave advent to the " Poco Collina " label utilizing the same award winning winemaker, Jonathan Oberlander.  The wine was released in 2014 and awarded an Oregon Wine Press "Best Value Pick" in 2015
​2018 will feature the release of our 2017 Pinot Noir Blanc & Rose' in early spring.

We manage our vineyard with painstaking care, including using sustainable practices  / methods and organic sprays.
Our heavy pruning during the dormant season, shoot thinning in the spring & fruit drop in late summer to limit our yield ensures only the highest quality of fruit is harvested.
This standard is carried forward by Jonathan during the winemaking process ensuring us  the highest quality wine possible is produced each and every time !
Each vintage of all our wines are distinctly different due to annual growing conditions & the hand crafted nature of the winemaking process.
Visit us at our events to try them all or call us for a private tasting appointment.
