For its first ten years, J.K. Carriere operated from a historic barn nestled in a working hazelnut
orchard in Yamhill County, Oregon. In November 2007, J.K. Carriere purchased 40 acres of grape-growing land on the southeast flank of Parrett Mountain, about three miles due east of its original location, in the Chehalem Mountains AVA. The first vineyard blocks were planted in March 2009, and the new winery facility and tasting room opened in September 2009. View the
photo gallery to check our progression.
We invite you to come explore our distinctive wines at our new
tasting room. We're open Friday and Saturday, 11 am to 4 pm, mid-February through November and by private appointment. The $10 tasting fee is refundable with a three-bottle purchase. The winery participates in Oregon's
Thanksgiving and Memorial Day weekend wine country open houses.
J.K. Carriere wines are available in wine shops, fine dining
establishments and specialty markets in thirteen states, as well as
directly through the winery.
