Founder,
John Weisinger, had the lifetime dream of starting a small
artisan winery and fulfilling his life long passion for
wine making. He chose the Rogue Valley of Southern Oregon
to realize that dream. The first steps toward that goal
began with the planting of Weisinger's vineyards in 1979.
John and the family spent many summers in the vineyards,
tending the young vines. In 1988, with the vision of producing
quality wines, the winery and tasting room were built.
This year the winery will celebrate two decades of production
and being a special destination in Ashland for discriminating
wine enthusiasts. In 1995, Eric Weisinger joined the winery
and was winemaker from 1997 through 2007. He has since
embarked on his personal career as a winemaking consultant.
The
winery’s location is on
a hill near the vineyards which has always been a special
place for the family and
friends to watch sunsets, have picnics, and enjoy the view
of the valley and mountains.
Today,
Weisinger's Winery is a reality, the wines and the business
have evolved into a celebrated
destination
in the Rogue Valley for those seeking a quality wine experience.
Weisinger’s is located fourteen miles north of the
California border and four miles south of the downtown
center of Ashland. You are invited to visit our tasting
room, enjoy the quality wine experience we provide, see
the beauty of the surrounding valley, and learn why the
Rogue Valley is such an exciting place to grow and produce
artisan wines.
Our staff is here to make your visit a memorable event
and a wine experience of a life time. Check out the staff
