Bree Stock brings a global lens to the future of Oregon wine

In Sip Magazine's profile, Master of Wine Bree Stock reflects on nearly three decades spent studying vineyards worldwide before settling in the Willamette Valley. As cofounder of Limited Addition Wines, she's moving Oregon's story beyond its Burgundy comparisons, drawing instead on the Loire Valley as a better model. A region shaped as much by its varied soils and microclimates as by any single grape.

Bree Stock, the first and only female MW in the Pacific Northwest, sees climate change accelerating this shift: later-ripening varieties like Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc are proving increasingly resilient where Pinot Noir once stood alone. Her work at Concinnitas Farm treats each new planting as a decades-long bet on where the region is headed, not just where it's been. Bree believes diversification isn't a departure from Oregon's identity, it's an expansion of it that is built on the same curiosity that's guided her whole career.
