About

Brooks Winery is located in Amity, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette Valley. Brooks is the living legacy of Jimi Brooks, a visionary Portland native who came to wine through his passion for history and philosophy. Jimi devoted his life to holistic farming and winemaking in the Willamette Valley. Jimi passed away unexpectedly in 2004 at the age of 38. His son Pascal (8 years old at the time) became the Owner of Brooks, and Brooks has continued with the dedication of Jimi’s best friend, Chris Williams (Brooks’ Winemaker) and his sister, Janie Heuck (Brooks’ Managing Director). Brooks produces 18,000 cases across 50 different labels, focusing on Pinot Noir, Riesling, and other aromatic whites. In 2019, 2021, and 2023, Brooks was designated as one of the Top 100 Wineries in the world by Wine & Spirits Magazine and has been named a 100 Best Fan-Favorite Destination in Oregon five years in a row. In 2023, Brooks was named #28 of the World’s Best Vineyards, and Green Company of the Year by The Drinks Business. The winery has received praise from Wine Enthusiast, USA Today, Sunset Magazine, and The New York Times, among others.
