Join us for an ev"ening with Jeff Russell of Catalyst Ridge Wines! Jeff and his friend Mark Zook started the winery in 2019 after years of friendship, studying wine, and planning for their own dream paid off when they found a winemaker to work with them.
Mark and Jeff knew they wanted to make approachable, great wines that deliver that little bit of joy in a glass. They envisioned wines bold in flavor, but accessible to both the sophisticated and casual palette. Joe Dobbes’ winemaking philosophy aligned with this vision, and they put into motion the first vintage of Catalyst Ridge Wines.
We envision Catalyst Ridge Wines as the spark that will change how you think about wine, especially those that define this incredible region.
“As catalysts are the spark of change, our wines honor the transformation from vine to wine. Change is a critical part of winemaking. It’s more than the change that happens in the field, or the change that happens through the fermentation process. It’s even greater than the change that happens in the bottle. It’s the sum of all those changes, with a little nurturing from the winemaker, to create the magic of a special glass of wine.”
We’ll be tasting Chardonnay, Rose, and Pinot Noir from two sub-AVAs in Willamette Valley. This is a wonderful opportunity to taste these wines before they hit our shelves. Bottle sales and pre-orders will be available as well!
