Welcome to Kramer Vineyards, a cherished and enduring family-owned winery in the picturesque northern Willamette Valley wine country. With a rich legacy spanning over four decades, our captivating story traces back to 1971 when Trudy and Keith Kramer embarked on their transformative journey into winemaking. Driven by an unyielding passion and unwavering commitment, they set out to find the perfect vineyard property to become the foundation of their winemaking legacy.
In the early 1980s, their quest led them to the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Willamette Valley, where the heart of Oregon's renowned wine region beats. Amongst the rolling hills and vine-covered slopes, they discovered the extraordinary Yamhill-Carlton AVA—an acclaimed appellation known for its exceptional wines and distinct terroir. It was here, amidst the breathtaking beauty of this cherished land, that the Kramer family's vision began to take root.
Harnessing the immense potential of this remarkable terroir, characterized by ancient marine sediment and the tempering influence of the nearby Coast Range, the Kramer Vineyards flourished. Our vines, carefully nurtured in this idyllic setting, draw sustenance from the fertile soils, crafting unparalleled character and finesse wines. Each bottle of Kramer wine tells a captivating tale, reflecting the rich tapestry of the Willamette Valley wine region and the meticulous craftsmanship of our winemaking team.
