Cascade Foothills Winegrowers is a collection of small, independent, vineyard-driven, winemakers with agricultural roots dating back more than a hundred years.

From Oregon City to the Silverton Hills, the Cascade Foothills is home to some of Oregon’s wine pioneers including St Josef’s and AlexEli (formerly Marquam Hill) as well as some bright, upcoming winemakers.

Enjoy more than just Pinot Noir along uncongested country roads a mere 30 minutes Southeast from Portland. The Cascade Foothills are nestled in the slopes of Mount Hood in Oregon’s Willamette Valley and provide the soil and geography ideal for growing wine grapes. With more than 2,000 acres of vines, this 30 year old wine growing region provides grapes for many of Oregon’s most successful and talked about wineries.
