Stangeland

Stangeland Winery is a family-owned estate winery located in the heart of the Willamette Valley in Salem, Oregon. Founded by Larry Stangeland in 1991, the winery is built on a strong foundation laid by his parents, North Dakota natives Grace and Marion Miller, who purchased the property in 1971 and planted various clones of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris. The winery's signature varietals are estate-grown Pinot Noir, including international award-winning single vineyard designated Pinots, as well as Chardonnay, Rose, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, and Viognier. Stangeland's winemaking philosophy emphasizes traditional Old World methods combined with New World innovations, utilizing French oak barrels and minimal handling to create wines of exceptional quality, taste, and approachability. The tasting room, situated in the heart of the vineyard, offers wine tastings and gift items, including artisanal cheeses and local hazelnuts. Visitors can enjoy picturesque views while sipping a glass of wine, and owners Larry or his winemaker are often on site to share their knowledge and passion for the craft. The winery's COVID-19 protocols follow state guidelines, requiring face masks indoors but no vaccination proof. With its rich history, beautiful setting, and commitment to quality, Stangeland Winery is a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts in the Willamette Valley.
