Bergstrom Winery

Our story began in 1997, when John and Karen Bergstrom moved out to Dundee from Portland and purchased 15 acres of land in the Dundee Hills off of Worden Hill Road. The Land is a beautiful South, South-East slope, previously farmed to hazelnuts and black walnuts. We spent two years carefully preparing the earth, sowing and plowing under rich green cover crops that would help revitalize the soils and improve the organic matter before planting the Bergstrom Vineyard in 1999.

This Vineyard would be a testament to our commitment to quality from the very beginning, planted entirely to Pinot Noir with a wide variety of clonal and rootstock selecitons (Pommard, Wadenswil, Dijon 114,115,667,777,828, as well as some unique plant material from Burgundy grafted onto Riparia Gloire, 101-14 and 3309-C rootstocks.) The Bergstrom Vineyard is comprised of 8 different high-density blocks varying from a traditional Burgundian spacing of 3500+ grapevines per acre, to Oregon's more widely accepted cutting edge spacings of 2200-2500 vines per acre.
