Joe and Pat Campbell were some of the first to recognize the northern Willamette Valley as a legitimate region to grow world-class wine grapes; pioneering and planting in the mid-1970's, and establishing Elk Cove Vineyards with a decidedly Burgundian noninterventionist ethos. Son, Adam, who grew up in the vineyards, has been the acclaimed head winemaker since 1999.
