Scenic vineyard views paired with historic winemaking methods

Best known for: Hand-crafted wines using Old World techniques

Rizzo Winery, nestled in the scenic landscape of Salem, Oregon, is renowned for its dedication to producing exceptional wines through meticulous winemaking techniques.

Founded in 2006, the winery began with the transformation of an old cherry orchard into a vibrant vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA. Under the guidance of winemaker David Rizzo, the winery focuses on expressing the purest fruit from its grapes, utilizing both estate-grown and neighboring vineyard grapes.

Each bottle is meticulously hand-crafted using Old World techniques, with a particular emphasis on a signature Pinot Noir from the Eola-Amity Hills in the Willamette Valley. In addition to Pinot Noir, Rizzo Winery produces a diverse range of wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Gris, and the historically significant Carménère.
