Located in the center of the famed Ribbon Ridge AVA, Trisaetum Winery is a family-owned and operated winery that vinifies hand-picked fruit from our three dry-farmed estate vineyards in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Our three vineyards include our Ribbon Ridge vineyard in the Ribbon Ridge AVA, our Coast Range vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA and our Wichmann Dundee vineyard in the Dundee Hills AVA.

Our harvest internship lasts approximately 8 weeks, beginning at the start of September.
