The Wine
“Valley of Flowers” pays respect to our name, the AVA, and the expression of our winery home at Corral Creek. Looking to our next 30 years, we want to follow the example set by the Calapooia tribe centuries ago: to treat our land with great care and to continue our mission of creating a sustainable future. Made with fruit from our oldest vineyard, this wine is composed of old-vine Pommard and Wädenswil planted in 1983. It spent a year aging in a new Sirugue, and another five months in a neutral barrel before bottling.
The Winery
The story of Chehalem is rooted in a deep and abiding reverence for the land. From the vineyards we nurture and harvest to the wine we blend and age, we handle every step with respect for sustainable practices. We consider ourselves a vineyard winery. We aim to reflect what the vineyard has produced, purely, with minimal processing and without compromising great fruit. A staple of the Downtown Newberg wine scene, our tasting room is open seven days a week. Old-school winemaking, Oregon-style!
