Join Host Carlo DeVito as he continues his trip through Oregon's Willamette Valley through the Dundee Hills. Today's stop is Stoller Family Estate Vineyard and Winery and the wines of Melissa Burr. One of the largest contiguous vineyards in the Willamette Valley, and certainly some of the best wines. They use sustainable farming practices, and make great wine. Our tasting is courtesy of Teresa Dean and Stacy Sharp! Special thanks to them!

Melissa Burr
Melissa Burr was raised in the Willamette Valley. After completing her Bachelor of Science degree, soon discovered her true passion was in wine. She studied winemaking and fermentation science at OSU and interned during harvest for several local wineries before becoming production winemaker for Cooper Mountain. In 2003, Melissa joined Stoller Family Estate as the winery’s first dedicated winemaker. She has helped grow production from 1,000 cases to 60,000 while acting as a steward of Stoller’s legacy. Love her wines.
