Saturday-Sunday, September 2-3, 2017 | Noon – 4:00 p.m.
Visit Bells Up Winery without an appointment during Labor Day weekend. The winery’s estate tasting room will be open from noon to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, September 2-3, 2017. Tastings are $15 per person, deducted from a $75 purchase. Members of Bells Up’s Fanfare Club enjoy complimentary tastings throughout the event.
During the open house, guests will enjoy tastings of several of Bells Up’s handcrafted wines poured by owner and winemaker David Specter, paired with light fare and spectacular views from the tasting room and its recent porch addition.
Additionally, local author Barbara Smith Randall will be selling and signing copies of her debut book “Willamette Valley Wineries”—in which Bells Up Winery is featured—throughout the event on Saturday.
Located in the Chehalem Mountains AVA, Bells Up Winery is at 27895 NE Bell Road at the intersection of Zimri Drive. In its third year of operation, the label is one of Newberg’s newest micro-boutique wineries—making approximately 400 cases annually—and is always open by appointment.
Bells Up composes handcrafted, classically-styled Oregon Pinot Noir with grapes sourced primarily from micro-growers located on the northern side of the Willamette Valley. It also offers a small selection of other Oregon-grown and produced varietals.
The name “Bells Up” is a reference to a dramatic moment in classical music where the composer instructs French horn players to lift the bells of their instruments upward and project their sound with maximum intensity. Specter, a French horn player who performed in bands and symphonic groups throughout high school and college, says the winery is his “Bells Up” moment.
