THE FIRST VINES WERE PLANTED AT BETHEL HEIGHTS IN 1977, IN THE EOLA HILLS OF OREGON’S WILLAMETTE VALLEY. WHEN TWIN BROTHERS, TED AND TERRY CASTEEL, AND THEIR PARTNERS, PAT DUDLEY AND MARILYN WEBB, DECIDED TO TURN THEIR LOVE FOR WINE AND FASCINATION WITH WINEMAKING INTO A LIFE-CHANGING CAREER, THE VINEYARD WAS JUST WHAT THEY WERE LOOKING FOR. Ted Casteel is one of the co-founders of Low Input Viticulture and Enology (LIVE) in Oregon, and the Casteel family has been instrumental in establishing LIVE Certification throughout Oregon. Bethel Heights estate wines have been certified LIVE since 1999. In 2008 the Oregon Wine Board launched the Oregon Certified Sustainable Wine (OCSW) program to communicate the shared principles of the Oregon wine industry's commitment to responsible, sustainable vineyard and winery practices. Bethel Heights estate wines starting carrying the OCSW logo in 2008. As a contribution to clean watersheds, Bethel Heights Vineyard was one of the first vineyards to be certified Salmon Safe in 1997. This certification represents our commitment to helping native salmon have the safest water possible to live and reproduce. And, in an ongoing effort to reduce our carbon footprint, we partnered with Solar Nation to install a 60-kilowatt solar panel system in 2010. It allows us to supply approximately 40% of our own energy needs.
