Grochau Cellars

Sustainable Oregon winery with deep regional roots

Best known for: Food-friendly wines from Oregon

GC Wines, originally known as Grochau Cellars, was founded in 2002 by John Grochau. He made the switch from fine dining in Portland to winemaking, mentored by notable figures in the Willamette Valley.

Over the past two decades, Grochau has become a respected name in the Oregon wine scene. His focus has been on building strong relationships with local growers and producing wines that highlight the region's unique qualities.

The winery works with sustainable and organic growers across Oregon and Washington, including vineyards in the northern Willamette Valley and the Columbia River Gorge.

Their commitment to quality and community is clear in every bottle. They believe that terroir isn't just about the land, but also involves the people who make the wine.
