Tualatin, Ore.—Union Wine Co. announced its acquisition of Amity Vineyards in the Willamette Valley. Established in 1974, Amity Vineyards is regarded as one of Oregon’s pioneering wineries and has remained under the control of the original owners: Myron Redford, his wife Vikki Wetle and Janis Checchia. “I’m honored to steward the next chapter of Amity Vineyards and am dedicated to maintaining its heritage,” Union Wine Co. owner Ryan Harms said of the deal. Harms said Amity currently produces 6,000 cases of wine from 15 acres of estate vines and that he plans to manage the winery as a separate brand.
