Sustainable Wine Tour Itinerary

EcoShuttle knows that sustainable vineyards are rapidly becoming the “Growing” standard for organic viticulture practices in wine grape production. Please call in for rates!

Sokol Blosser

Susan Sokol Blosser, President, is a long time supporter of sustainable agriculture, stated “we are on the cutting edge of exciting opportunities for marketing and education. LIVE makes us all better farmers.” She continued to speak of how sustainable practices make her feel more connected to the land: “Sustainability goes beyond caring about the insects, beyond the biodiversity, and beyond protecting the longevity of grape plants in the vineyard; sustainability even goes beyond leaving an economically viable vineyard operation for my children.”

Penner-Ash Wine Cellars

Features a new sustainable, gravity-flow winery surrounded by Dussin Vineyard – an exceptional setting to enjoy one of Oregon’s leading Pinot noir producers. Oregon’s northern latitude brings long hours of summer sunshine and cool nights to our vineyard which helps fully ripen our grapes and retain natural acidity. Their unique growing season allows for the development of complex fruit flavors, aromatics and nuances associated with world-class wines.

Cooper Mountain Vineyards

Situated on the slopes of an ancient volcano, Cooper Mountain Vineyards utilizes organic and biodynamic farming techniques to create wine that is rich and delicious in flavor. Cooper Mountain Vineyards is recognized as one of Oregon’s innovative leaders in the wine industry.

Ponzi Vineyards

Maria Ponzi, Marketing Director for Ponzi Winery said “Having the LIVE logo on our bottle of wine means our wines have reached the highest standards in the world.” She continued with what Ponzi is doing to support sustainability, “Luisa Ponzi [as winemaker] put her foot down and made the decision: our winery will not process one grape that is not certified sustainable.”
