elcome to Elk Cove Vineyards, one of Oregon's oldest and most respected wineries. We've been making wine since 1977, and it shows! Elk Cove has won many awards and the critic's acclaim as well.

Family owned and operated, winemaker Adam Godlee Campbell joined forces with his parents in 1995 to continue producing outstanding Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, and now Pinot Blanc!

Adam and his dedicated staff invite you to visit us and find out for yourself why we say “true quality is timeless.”

Recent Accolades

Pinot Noir

2009 Shea: 93 Pts. "Ripe and round, this is supple in texture and expressive in flavor, displaying currant and plum fruit against hints of roasted meat and toasted herbs. Finishes with finesse. Drink now through 2019." Wine Spectator (April 30, 2012)

2009 Willamette Valley Old School: 92 Pts. "Supple, generous, complex and distinctive, offering cherry, black tea, tobacco and smoke notes in expressive balance. Finishes with refinement and impressive length. Best from 2013 through 2019." Wine Spectator Insider (February 8, 2012)

2009 Roosevelt: 91 Pts. "Smooth and velvety, with a bright edge to the ripe cherry and floral flavors, persisting intensely and expressively against refined tannins. Drink now through 2017." Wine Spectator (March 1, 2012)

2009 Willamette Valley: 91 Pts. Smart Buy! "This fresh red is inviting and invigorating for its juicy black currant, plum and white pepper flavors, playing with zest against polished tannins and lively acidity. Drink now through 2019." Wine Spectator (January 1, 2012)

2009 Clay Court: 90 Pts. "Plummy and broad, this rich pinot has a burly appeal of grenache but with darker, more mineral fruit." Wine & Spirits (April 30, 2012)

2009 La Bohème: 90 Pts. "Forward and spicy, leading with the scents of black cherry jam and red plum, this wine’s flavors are just as fruit-driven, with a pleasing hint of anise." Wine & Spirits (April 30, 2012)

Pinot Gris

2010 Willamette Valley: 90 Pts. Best Buy. "One of Oregon’s 50 Best Wines. With scents of sweet pear and almonds, fresh acidity, and flavors of baking spice and ripe peaches that linger on the palate, Elk Cove’s 2010 estate pinot gris is a definite crowd pleaser." Portland Monthly (September 30, 2011)

Pinot Blanc

2010 Willamette Valley. America’s Best Undiscovered Wines — "Why Pinot Blanc is hardly known and Pinot Gris is practically inescapable is a mystery beyond the scope of this column. In fact, it’s even more mysterious when you consider how good this juicy, full-bodied white is." Food & Wine (February 28, 2012)
