Art+Science

Art+Science is a natural cider, perry, and wine producer run by Dan Rinke and Kim Hamblin on a 50-acre farm in rural Yamhill County, Oregon, between Sheridan and Willamina in the foothills of the Coastal Range. The project began in 2011 with wine, and in 2012 the couple bought land behind their home, planted apple trees, and made their first cider from foraged fruit. Rinke manages fermentation while Hamblin creates the cut-paper assemblage artwork that becomes every label. They work with foraged, organic, or biodynamic fruit and ferment everything with native yeast, adding only minimal sulfur when necessary. The lineup includes wine, cider, perry, co-ferments, and fruit wines, often bottle-conditioned, carbonic, amphora-fermented, or made as pet-nats. The farm is organically farmed though not certified, with a 4.5-acre contour orchard of more than 85 apple, pear, quince, and grape varieties plus a seedling orchard, raptor roosts, bird and owl boxes, and hedgerows. Visiting centers on an all-outdoor tasting room with covered seating, a fire pit, garden seating, and reservable group pods.
