Aramenta Cellars
Located in the Willamette Valley, this is the smallest AVA (American Viticulture Area) in Oregon, consisting of 5 square miles. Highly sought after fruit, Orchards and Timber, this area is quickly becoming renowned for their Pinot Noir. The landscape has been described like, "a ribbon flowing through the valley."

This Ribbon Ridge Estate property is filled with beauty, making your experience everlasting. The small rustic farm setting at Aramenta Cellars provides a relaxing and serene place to sample and enjoy our handcrafted Pinot Noir. We look forward to greeting you 7 days a week and sharing our wine experiences with you.
Services
At Aramenta Cellars we are a full hands on operation with traditional ways in winemaking that include organic crushing, fermenting, and bottling with no manipulation of the fruit. From harvesting, to small fermentation lots, to barreling, to labeling, our wines spend less than a year in the barrel.

In lieu of our bi-annual visit to the vineyards in Piedmont and Montalcino due to the COVID restrictions, we planned a visit to the Willamette Valley. Of the approximately 20 vineyards we visited, Aramenta was at the top of our list and would highly recommend a visit. Darlene and Ed were great. Of most significance was their presentation of a vertical starting in 2011 and ending in 2017. This allowed us to select vintages which were most pleasing to our palette. Without exception, all other vineyards were unable to accomplish this as they tend not to "cellar" their wines.

We had a great time at this small, family run estate winery. The couple who owns and runs the winery were extremely friendly and generous with their time and knowledge, and the wine we tasted was among the best we had on our trip.

My wife and decided to try this winery on our way to the primary choice for the day. Let's say that this place is hard to beat. This is the type of place we like - small and personable. Darlene talked about the difference in taste caused by hot versus cold weather. The tasting was only $10, but we got eight or nine pours (last count - wouldn't you?). The Pinot Noirs were very nice and the Chardonnay (they buy the fruit) was great. We left with a bottle of Chardonnay and a bottle of the 2014 Pinot Noir Reserve - both reasonable prices. Definitely going back in the summer since this would

One of the coolest wine tastings that I have ever done. They did a fantastic job comparing each of their different pinots. I will definitely be back

We had an incredible private tasting today with Darlene. We learned about the family and vineyard history & felt like old friends having a chat over wonderful wine. Of our tour today this was our favourite place!

Aramenta cellars is a mostly undiscovered gem in Oregon wine country. They have some of the best Pinots that we've tasted in the area, and they're a small family owned and run winery with prices reminiscent of old school Oregon wineries, but wines that hold their own against similar wines that cost more than twice as much. The owners are obviously hands on and usually doing the tastings when we've visited. Very welcoming and down to earth.

We visit the Willamette Valley regularly to visit family, and usually spend some time wine tasting, usually trying out new places we haven&apos

We wanted wine from Oregon that you'd never find in a Texas store. It also had to be beautiful wine. Armamenta Cellars -that'll do

Lovely spot. The wines we tried were amazing. Walked away with a delicious bottle of 2010 Pinot Noir. The owners are extremely friendly. The space is breathtaking with scenic views of neighboring wineries, and a lovely little pond with a fountain you can admire from afar after your tasting. We will be back for sure!

The owners were so nice and wonderful.

They shared the story of how they came into the business and were generally just very warm and welcoming.

They have great tables to have a lunch at, and there is beautiful views of ribbon ridge from there property.

Our first winery on a trip to the Willamart Valley set the bar high, so high in fact that none of the vineyards and tasting rooms we visited thereafter even compared to this small production mom and pop operation. We were the only patrons during our tasting but were treated as if we represented an entire tour bus of business. The tasting was informative and fun, and allowed us to not only understand the Ribbon Ridge in which we drank the wine better but also the interesting story of the family that had made what we were sipping. We were treated to a tour of the operations, located right within
