The NW’s original harvest celebration!

St Josef’s  Grapestomping Festival is Back for 2023!

Our 40th Annual!

Before there were micro brews and Starbucks in Oregon, there was the St Josef’s Grapestomping Festival!  The festival started in 1983 when there were less than 30 wineries in Oregon. Proprietors, Josef & Lilli who emigrated from Germany, wanted to pass on a little bit of the harvest spirit to the burgeoning Oregon wine industry. Since running a vineyard and winery is a lot hard work, they believed it was important to start the busy crush season off with a lighthearted approach. With lively music, local foods and of course, stomping grapes in a barrel.  It has grown to stomping next to a 1200 gallon Oak barrel that holds 3,000 bottles of wine, music from Bavaria & beyond and locally made foods in a casual, relaxed European atmosphere.

One of Portland’s best party band will be playing on the pond with stomping going on too! In addition to Grapestomping held throughout the day, we will have special recipe German sausages, along with other locally made foods. New vintages and special reserve wines will be available by the glass, plus tastings, beers and non-alcoholic beverages.

$X per person and includes a St Josef’s souvenir glass.
