Winery Description: Bethel Heights Vineyard is a pioneering winery in Oregon's Willamette Valley, known for its commitment to sustainable viticulture and the production of high-quality wines. Situated on a 75-acre estate in the Eola-Amity Hills, the vineyard benefits from geologically diverse soils and the cooling effects of the Van Duzer Corridor winds, which contribute to the complexity and balance of its wines. The winery specializes in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, producing several block and vineyard-designated bottlings that reflect the unique terroir of the region. As one of the early adopters of sustainable farming practices, Bethel Heights was among the first vineyards in Oregon to be certified Salmon-Safe and has been a leader in the Low Input Viticulture and Enology (LIVE) certification program. With a legacy spanning over four decades, Bethel Heights continues to be a family-run operation dedicated to crafting expressive wines that embody the character of their estate.
