Bells Up Winery - Winery in Newberg - OPEN BY APPOINTMENT PLEASE, 27895 NE Bell Rd, USA

Schedule a private tasting at Bells Up Winery and you won't be disappointed. The Specters provide a unique experience that builds a long-term relationship with wine and with them. I learned how to describe wine in a new way that made sense to me. This was a memorable event.

Absolutely a must-visit winery. The tastes they've accomplished with the same varietals being sold everywhere are extraordinary. Both the owners are fun, down-to-earth, and such a joy to talk to. The property is beautiful (even after an ice storm!). If you are visiting from out of town and are looking for a high quality winery, or if you are local and haven't tried this place yet, I cannot recommend it enough. We had a total blast and are already planning our return trip.

Absolutely delicious tasting wine at a very small winery of only 10 acres. The owner and his wife are the only two employees and do everything from planting vines to fermenting the wine. We very much appreciated this as it added a very personalized contribution to the creation of the wines Bells Up Winery sells. The owner creates a very welcoming atmosphere for the wine tasting and is extremely happy to answer any questions about the wine, Bells Up’s history, or even about his personal life. I highly recommend visiting for a tasting or even just ordering a bottle of my favorite, the Firebird, to try for yourself.

We did a couples wine trip to Oregon in February of 2023 and Bells Up was clearly one of the highlights. Our tasting with Dave & Sara was truly enlightening and there were no questions that we could ask that did not include an insightful answer. The wines we tasted were awesome and are now a favorite part of our wine cellar stock. ( We love the musical theme to the wine names) We will go see these great people every time we go out to Willamette Valley wine country!

Bells Up is a fantastic small winery. Dave and Sara are equally fantastic and provide a very intimate and personalized visit and tour. My wife and I stumbled upon Bells Up celebrating our anniversary and fell in love with the wine and their story. Can’t wait to visit again!

Dave is very friendly and knowledgeable. It’s nice to see people can follow their dreams. The tasting area is new, clean and nice. The wine is very unique and not your typical selection which is interesting. The tasting fee for the selection and pours is quite expensive comparatively. They were also sold out of many options which limited the tasting. They have very high potential and I am excited to follow their journey. I would go back in a few years

My wife and I were making a trip to the Willamette Valley and saw the logo of the French Horn. We have a dear friend who plays the French Horn in our local symphony and our son learned to play from him. Thus, the name drew us in but then we scheduled a tasting with Sara and met Dave for a wonderful 90 minute discovery of their philosophy, passion and adventure into wine growing and wine production. It was most enjoyable as we sipped outstanding wines and entered into their love of the land, the challenges of nature and the day-to-day demands that make such remarkable wines. If you want a very inspiring visit to Willamette, a beautiful vista over the valley and an experience of "thumbs up" fabulous white, red, sparkling, and rosé wines, then plan to visit Bells Up. It is now late October and our case of wine has arrived for the holidays–not sure it will last that long!

This was a lovely way to spend a fall afternoon. Dave was personable, professional and knowledgeable about his craft. The property was a relaxed setting for delicious wines. The Syrah was my absolute favorite. Went home with several bottles to enjoy at a later time. Lots of fall colors in the neighborhood make for a beautiful drive as well. It was great getting to know Dave and the history of Bells Up. Will definitely return and recommend this place to others.
