It’s a love story for the ages. Think kissing in the rain, boombox outside your window, “you complete me”… that’s how you’ll feel about this wine. First Sight wines are sourced from CCOF-certified vineyards that steer clear of synthetic chemicals and pesticides. These organic farming practices allow us to reduce our overall environmental impact while still producing wines of the highest quality.

Started by Mac Rankin and Jack Schropp out of Jack’s garage in 1993 with nothing but a love of good beer and the dogged certainty that people would recognize quality and originality when they tasted it. The mission is simple: to make something people love, and to make it the right way — not the easy way, and not the way everyone else is making it. You could say we’re stubborn as hell about our beer, and we’d agree.

Established in 1982 and acquired by Ackley Brands in 2016, Montinore Estate is one of the largest producers of certified estate wines made from Biodynamic® grapes in the country. With three Demeter-certified Biodynamic® and CCOF-certified organic vineyards located across the Willamette Valley, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethical and sustainable viticulture.

Cataclysm was born from the understanding that things don’t always go according to plan. These wines are classically drinkable yet surprisingly complex, a testament to why Washington State has become one of the most exciting wine-growing regions in the world. Like nature, they balance power with grace and remind us that our world is in a constant state of reinvention.

Borealis embodies the unique and awe-inspiring wonder of the Pacific Northwest, shaped by its ancient soils, spectacular landscape, and maritime climate. It blends the elegance of old-world wine craft with the grit and creativity of the Northwest, and each sip displays the balance and complexity that have made Oregon and Washington two of the world’s preeminent wine regions.

Upon purchasing Tidalstar Vineyard in 2016, the winemaking and viticulture teams from Montinore Estate couldn’t help but notice that this site was something special. The vineyard provided perfect growing conditions for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and thus inspired the creation of Landlines Estates; a collection of four single-vineyard wines that capture the true essence of Tidalstar Vineyard.

Planted in 1999, this 30-acre biodynamically farmed vineyard is positioned against the western edge of the Yamhill-Carton AVA. Elevated above the valley floor, the vines look southeast, across the Willamette, catching the first-morning sun over the Cascades and the first evening breezes off the Pacific. The vineyard is a Demeter Certified Biodynamic® farm as well as LIVE-certified and organic.
