The Bayliss’ have been stewards to this land in a corner of the Willamette Valley since 1906. Beautiful rolling hills made up of sedimentary Willakenzie soils perfect for the propagation of the hard to grow, but very rewarding Pinot Noir grapes. To make delicious and elegant wine from the grapes grown in our vineyard is our continuing efforts.
