Alexana Winery & Vineyards

Dr. Madaiah Revana’s love of the great wines from Burgundy launched a search for the perfect piece of land in the Willamette Valley. Today, Alexana’s Revana Vineyard is one of the most unique in the US, with 18 soil types found within 55 acres in the Dundee Hills. Dr. Revana’s boyhood on a farm in India gave him an appreciation for the rhythms of the land. He recognizes the depth of knowledge needed to succeed with a specialized crop. Alexana wines receive the highest of accolades every year.

Björnson Vineyard

Björnson’s 28-acre estate vineyard has neighboring forests, creeks and riparian areas—a passionate conservation effort by the owners. The estate’s wile areas support the vineyard with cleaner water, better wildlife habitat, integrated pest management, and reduced soil erosion. In line with sustainable farming practices, owners Pattie and Mark Björnson approach wine making with minimal handling, preferring to let Mother Nature do her part. Cooling marine breezes (known as the “Van Duzer Winds”) create grapes with smaller, thicker skins and a higher concentration of flavor. The result: wines with a darker fruit profile, good tannins and bright acidity – providing complexity on the pallet and longevity in the cellar.

Project M Wines

PROJECT M is the vision of Meg and Jerry Murray. With more than 30 years of collective wine industry experience, they craft precise and elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Rosé and Riesling from distinctive sites in the Willamette Valley. The mission of PROJECT M is to enhance their customer’s quality of life. Meg and Jerry create wines that aim to facilitate the shared experience of beauty. They believe that a great farmer can squeeze every drop of potential from every opportunity by making the right decisions at the right time. PROJECT M works with growers of premium fruit in the Willamette Valley, all of whom share the same deep respect and reverence for the land.

Purple Hands

Native to Oregon’s vineyards and farmland, owners Cody and Marque Wright are most intrigued by wines that reveal the history of their local landscape. Winemaker Cody has been in the cellar his whole life—with stints at home and abroad—and has followed in the footsteps of his father, Ken Wright. All Purple Hands wines undergo native fermentation and remain unrefined and unfiltered at bottling to preserve their natural, wild character. Achieving elegance in this pursuit is the passion and art of their craft.

Stoller Family Estate

Over the last 30 years, the Stoller family has patiently transformed their 400-acre property into the largest contiguous vineyard in Oregon’s Dundee Hills. They control every step of the wine-growing and winemaking process, from pruning to bottling and everything in between. The result is award-winning wines that are balanced, complex, and consistently exceptional.

Stoller was the first winery in the world to receive LEED Gold certification, attesting that our winery is sustainably built and environmentally friendly. We are honored to be ranked on the USA Today 10 Best Tasting Rooms Reader’s Choice poll in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, and Oregon’s Most Admired Winery by the Portland Business Journal for eight consecutive years.
