Established in 1976, this is one of Willamette Valley's first wineries. Owner and winemaker Myron Redford is a respected veteran vintner who oversees a 8,000 case production of Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc and Riesling. Redford was an advocate of little or no new oak in vinifying Pinot Noir and his early Pinot Noirs were somewhat austere and acidic. In recent years, he has embraced more modern tastes and his Pinot Noirs show more extraction, ripeness and less acidity. His white wines have always been lauded for their purity and vibrancy. Amity Vineyards is one of the few Oregon wineries to have a tasting room open year round. The wines are available on the website as well. 18150 Amity Vineyards Rd, Amity, OR (Yamhill County). 503-835-2362.
