Wellington Vineyards & Winery

In the vineyard we practice sustainable agriculture. We use a blend of organic and traditional farming practices that promote healthy vines and a healthy environment.   Wellington Vineyards is not a glitzy showplace winery; we put our money and hard work where it belongs - into wine production. Our goal is to produce great wines at a fair price. An important aspect of this plan to offer great value is based on direct sales. Our first Tasting Room opened to the public in 1994. Many of you familiar with the winery have fond memories of our cozy little tasting room with its 15 foot long bar in a 20x15 foot room, sitting outside with a glass of wine and a picnic looking over our vineyard that dates back to 1892. Since August of 1998 we have been comfortably ensconced in our new Tasting Room. As you stand and sample our wines you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view out eight huge bay windows that look directly into old vineyards planted in 1924 with the Mayacamas Mountains as a backdrop. The new Tasting Room also provides windows looking into the cellar were you can see the barrels of wine aging and the winemakers busy at work making those special handcrafted boutique wines we all enjoy so much. Remember walking through the front door and bumping into the bar all in the same motion? We now have space to provide each of you with a one-on-one experience of each of our wines. With all the added space we are proudly displaying a few souvenirs, gourmet foods and works of art from Michael Richie, an internationally acclaimed local artist noted for his superb use of color.
