Sustainability at Argyle

At Argyle, we are growers first. We are also an Oregon winery with deep roots in our community, and a commitment to the long-term health of our land and the Oregon wine industry. This means that we believe in being good stewards of our vineyards, good neighbors, and a positive force in our communities. To achieve this, we are dedicated to the tenets of sustainability in all areas of our operations, including water conservation, energy efficiency, composting, waste reduction, renewable packaging, civic responsibility, philanthropy, social equity, and much more.

While we take pride in what we have accomplished so far, we are constantly striving to be better environmental citizens, while producing wines that reflect the intersection between people and place that have been at the core of our philosophy since 1987.

Our Sustainable Home

The Argyle Tasting House was developed with a focus on sustainable construction and operating practices. Building materials like siding, roofing, lumber and fixtures were repurposed from portions of the former winery and have been reimagined as primary design features of the new space. All of the tables, shelves, bar and wall siding were built from repurposed Douglas Fir rafters that lived high above the original cellar building.

LIVE Certified

In 2008, we became one of the first Oregon wineries to earn the LIVE (Low Input Viticulture & Enology) certification, a rigorous third-party recognition for sustainable farming practices. This certification also includes Salmon Safe certification, ensuring that our farming practices protect nearby waterways and fish habitats. Additionally, we are proud to be Bee-Friendly certified, supporting pollinator health and biodiversity. These certifications highlight our dedication to preserving the environment while crafting exceptional wines.
