willamette valley vineyards Pinot noir Pinot gris Chardonnay T he scent of toasted barrels and classic Oregon Pinot Noir greets you when you walk into the remodeled Willamette Valley Vineyards Estate Tasting Room, “We now have fireplaces, a wood- and vine-burning oven for flat breads, a chef ’s demonstration counter for wine and food pairings, a dedicated wine-club room, and a new deck area with barrel cellars carved into the ancient volcanic rock below,” says Communications Director Matt Boyington. Merlot Riesling Cabernet Sauvignon Gewürztraminer Founded in 1983 by Jim Bernau, Willamette Valley Vineyards was named one of America’s great Pinot Noir producers by Wine Enthusiast Magazine, and in 2011 they were named winery of the year by Wine and Spirits Magazine. The Estate vineyard includes 50 acres with an additional 200 acres at their Tualatin Estate Vineyard, and 60 acres of vines at Elton Vineyard. All of their vineyards are certified sustainable by LIVE and Salmon Safe. Müller-Thurgau Pinot blanc Sauvignon blanc Sémillon Syrah benton-lane winery Arneis Baco noir Cabernet franc F ounded in 1988, Benton-Lane Winery is a family owned and operated winery and vineyard located in the tenderloin of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. We produce Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and small amounts of Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay. Benton-Lane’s Oregon Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris wines are currently distributed in all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico and several international markets. Benton-Lane has designed its own system for caring for its land which incorporates the best parts of the Sustainable, Organic and Biodynamic methods. This program was designed after seven years of certification under the L.I.V.E. sustainability program. During this time we began to realize that no one program was ideal in preserving and protecting our land. So we took the best parts of each program, added some measures of our own and gave birth to our own system of ensuring the health of our vineyards. While taking a drive in the country, come and check out the picturesque valley views from our patio while enjoying our highly reviewed wines. Our tasting room is open noon to 5 pm (closed weekends in January and February). Individual and group tours can be arranged. Enjoy a relaxed wine tasting with one of the founders of Benton-Lane Winery in our special wine room overlooking the vineyards (by advanced reservation only).
