Our Commitment
At Erath, we celebrate Oregon’s land, legacy and community through every bottle of wine we make. As a newly certified B Corporation wine brand, we believe that great wine should do more than delight the senses. It can be a driver for change in the world around us.
Being a Certified B Corp reflects Erath’s ongoing commitment to a sustainable wine brand that meets rigorous standards of social and environmental responsibility, transparency, and accountability. We are part of a global movement of businesses that balance purpose and profit, committing to making a positive impact for our employees, our community, and the planet. This certification is a part of our ongoing promise to use our business as a force for good, ensuring that our decisions support a more sustainable and equitable future.
Rooted in Stewardship
Since 1968, Erath has been guided by a pioneering spirit and a deep respect for Willamette Valley winemaking. Our commitment to stewardship is woven into the things we do, from the soil we nurture to the communities we support. Both of our estate vineyards, Willakia and Knight’s Gambit, are LIVE Certified. A deep respect for the land shapes our practices, including the sustainable farming standards we follow to ensure our vineyards endure for generations.
Giving Back, Growing Together
Our purpose extends beyond the vineyard.
In support of vineyard workers and their families, Erath is a founding winery in support of ¡Salud!, a cause dedicated to providing healthcare to the people behind the bottle.
Erath’s dedication to the community is ongoing. Through sponsorships like Women in Wine, we champion diversity and empowerment within our industry. Our in-store campaigns raise funds for local culinary organizations, helping nourish neighboring communities. And during Oregon Wine Month, our partnership with One Tree Planted helps reforest our planet, one tree at a time.
A Legacy of Purpose
We strive to continue stewarding the land and community that has supported our passion and pioneering spirit for Pinot Noir, a spirit guided by connection, craftsmanship, and intention. By living these principles, we aim to inspire and uphold the qualities that make Oregon Pinot Noir truly exceptional. Our wines are crafted to reflect the spirit of Oregon and to inspire moments of joy, discovery, and togetherness.
