Bold, lively, and full of heart, they’re quickly making their mark on the Willamette Valley.

In this episode, we explore the stories, philosophies, and winemaking journeys behind both brands—one steeped in tradition and patience, the other thriving on innovation and energy. Together, they showcase the incredible range of Oregon’s wine community.
