@stollerwine roots run deep. For Bill Stoller, purchasing the family property brought his connection to our state full circle. Bill’s family purchased the farm in 1943 to raise turkeys. They grew the farm from a small family operation into one of Oregon’s largest turkey farms. When the family farm ceased its operations, Bill seized the opportunity to acquire it with the vision of cultivating an enduring was a legacy for our land in community. Over the last 25 years, he has patiently transformed the 400-acre property into the largest contiguous vineyard in Oregon’s Dundee Hills. . . . . . 📷: @stollerwine #oregon #oregonwine #oregonwinecountry #willamettevalley #vineyard #wine #turkeys #mcminnvillerootsrundeep #wvwines

In McMinnville, our roots run deep. These pictures are of The Gallery at Ten Oaks. The first is from The News Register, and was taken in 1947. The second is from 1979. That one gives you an idea of where their name originated! And the last picture is current. It is so fun to see how these historical buildings withstand the test of time! #mcminnvillerootsrundeep . . . . . 📷: @newsregister and @tenoaksgallery #mcminnvilleoregon #mcminnvilleor #mcminnville #oregon #artgallery #art #willamettevalley #winecountry #oregonwinecountry

McMinnville roots run deep! The oldest winery in the McMinnville AVA is @yamhillvalleyvineyards . Their first vintage of wine was made in 1983! They had just purchased their land and had just planted, so they relied on partnerships with @hylandestates (oldest vineyard in the McMinnville AVA) who sold them the fruit, and @sokolblosser , where their wine was made! #mcminnvillerootsrundeep . . . . . 📷: @yamhillvalleyvineyards #mcminnville #mcminnvilleor #mcminnvilleoregon #oregon #willamettevalley #oregonwinecountry #wvwines #wine #retro #harvest #wvharvest #vineyard #winery

In McMinnville, our roots run deep. Maybe it's the feel of Serendipity ice cream dripping off your chin on a hot day, or the mouthwatering smell of something enticing wafting from Nick's as you take your time strolling down 3rd Street. Maybe it's the smiles we share with our neighbors, and give freely to visitors. Maybe it's that our grapevines dig deep into the Coast Range hillsides to reach water, struggling, continually reaching, and thriving - just like us. Maybe it's our connection to this place. Maybe it is simply this place. Whatever it is, we have it in abundance. And we are happy to share.
