Stewart Vineyard
Stewart Vineyard is a family-owned vineyard dedicated to growing high-quality grapes. The 27-acre property rises from the Chehalem Valley floor in the Ribbon Ridge AVA northwest of Newberg, Oregon. The vineyard features a variety of Pinot Noir clones and Chardonnay on rootstock grown for varied and fertile soil that has not been cultivated for over 100 years. Sustainable farming practices recognize the importance of terroir and the health and quality of the soil to the final product. Stewart Vineyard is seeking to verify it’s sustainability practices through the LIVE certification process. We are looking forward to developing future blocks of fruit on the site.
