Elk Cove Estate Tasting Room

Founded in 1974 by Pat and Joe Campbell, Elk Cove Vineyards has remained a cherished family-owned winery, recently celebrating 50 years of dedication to the art of winemaking. Today, the legacy continues with the next generation, led by Adam Campbell as Head Winemaker and Anna Campbell as Creative Director.
Starting with a modest pole barn winery and an octagonal tasting room in the 1980s, Elk Cove has steadily expanded its production capabilities and ranks among the top ten wine producers in the state. To accommodate increasing demand and enhance the guest experience, Elk Cove recently undertook a major redesign. The new addition includes a much-needed private tasting space that can accommodate both small and large groups. Behind this new tasting room, airy staff offices offer a significant quality-of-life improvement for the growing team that keeps Elk Cove thriving.
The new addition features a distinctive "timber jewel box," incorporating a mass timber structural system throughout the design. This innovative approach makes it Oregon's first wine tasting room to use Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) roof panels. The design emphasizes sustainability and includes upgraded seismic resilience, adhering to category IV standards typically reserved for critical facilities like hospitals and emergency services. It also boasts high-performance exterior finishes, including standing seam metal roofing, shou sugi ban wood siding, board-form concrete, and Cor-Ten and stainless steel railings, along with a high-performance envelope and custom timber-curtain wall system.
