Ken Wright

Winemaker

Yamhill-Carlton Pinot noir is redolent of blackberries, raspberries, cloves, tobacco, and coffee – all incredibly food friendly flavors.

Vitaly Paley

Chef

Yamhill-Carlton wines first captivate you with aroma. Their texture is like no other wine – silky, generous, and a persistence that lasts.

Tony Soter

Rosé is calling, and I must go. 🍷🌷🌸⁠
⁠
It's Rosé season in Yamhill-Carlton, and we couldn't be happier to enjoy these sunny days with glasses of Rosé (or bottles, we're not here to judge).

Bud break in Yamhill-Carlton! ⁠
⁠
Bud break signals the end of dormancy, and starts the growing season with small leaves bursting forth (also called "budburst"). It's our first sign of what the growing season will hold, and it's a beautiful time to visit. As the shoots grow, our region becomes more and more verdant. Of course, it's always beautiful in Yamhill-Carlton. 🍇😍

It's May, which means it's Oregon Wine Month! We're so happy to be part of the wine community in this amazing state. ⁠
⁠
We had an incredible time pouring for our guests at the spring tasting last weekend @abbeyroadfarm! The joy and energy of everyone together was wonderful, and we're always glad to have a chance to get all the wineries together in one room. Cheers!
