Any time is a good time to leave the freeway behind and take the scenic route from Portland to Bethel Heights. Back roads with little traffic take you through the heart of our lush Willamette Valley farm country with its amazing diversity of crops, past farm stands overflowing with local produce, and across the Willamette River on a delightful ferry ride.

We are pleased to introduce the newest addition to the Bethel Heights family, Dana B. Frank. Dana has been hired as our Direct Consumer Sales Manager, a position we have created for the purpose of focusing more time on our tasting room, on-line, and Cellar Club customers.
Dana comes to us with a wide array of wine experience in Portland. She received the Certified Sommelier award from the Court of Master Sommeliers in 2005, and has spent the past 5 years working as a buyer and sommelier for both retailers and restaurants in Portland such as New Seasons, 23Hoyt, clarklewis, and Grüner where she was also the general manager. Additionally, Dana worked for Triage Wines, selling an eclectic portfolio of small-production, naturally-farmed wines from around the world.

Kate’s fresh fragrant trees, just cut yesterday, were lining up last night outside the tasting room door, ready for this weekend’s Wine and Trees Special. Terry was poised to get first choice, but they are all beautiful!

If you come to Bethel Heights this weekend (December 4th and 5th) you’ll not only get to taste some great wines; you can also take home a fresh cut, sustainably grown Christmas tree. This weekend, just $30 will get you a taste of all six wines we are pouring (including a special sneak peek at one of our delicious 2009 pinots!) and a beautiful, sustainably grown, 5-7 foot noble fir Christmas tree to take home and deck with yule-tide splendor.
If you’ve ever visited Bethel Heights, you’ve probably met Kate, our Tasting Room/Cellar Club manager. But you may not know that the Feldman Tree Farm, just a short distance up the road from Bethel Heights Vineyard, is Kate’s family business. The level of care the Feldman family takes with their trees is above and beyond the rest of the industry. And it shows; these are beautiful trees!
