This past week we had beautiful weather, so it was time to do some property clean-up. Gordon and Tim were super helpful in finding all sorts of buried treasure on our acreage. The winning piece was definitely the mortar mixer. A close second was the truck bed and its two axles. Of course, we also found the requisite 55-gallon drums. We also are now the proud owners of a dozen old tires that are our responsibility for disposal.

The Bells Up Winery Story…
“If you’re this successful in a career that makes you sick, stressed and miserable… how much more successful would you be doing something you love?”
That’s the question Sara asked Dave 15 years ago, following his mental and physical breakdown from more than a decade as a successful corporate tax attorney. This, while watching Sara’s professional mentor battle pancreatic cancer at age 40.
The answer, for us, was that life is too short to spend unhappy. So we turned the basement hobby that brought Dave joy — winemaking — into Bells Up Winery.
Today — micro-boutique, un-domaine and always open by appointment — Bells Up composes 600 cases annually of handcrafted, classically-styled Oregon Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, Rosé, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Seyval Blanc (the Willamette Valley’s first and only planting).
