The vineyard is planted on a stony terrace with Jory and Nekia soils and great drainage. Five Pinot Noir clones and Dijon 96 Chardonnay vines are closely spaced and farmed organically. For the last several years, much of the production has gone to August Cellars, Boedecker, Bergstrom, GC Cellars, JK Carriere, and Lemelson. The Andersons starting their own label in 2002 and now produce just under 1,000 cases of Anderson Family Vineyard Pinot Noir. A new gravity-flow winery and underground barrel room have been built on the scenic property. Tasting is by appointment at 20120 NE Herring Lane in Newberg. 503-554-5541.
