It’s a family affair

Stardance Vineyard was started in 2003 by Glen & Shirley Kloss. The grapes have been used by winemakers throughout the Willamette Valley region.

Beth and Chris Franz, Glenn and Shirley’s daughter and son-in-law, bring Stardance grapes into Stardance Wines for the first time. They’ve hand selected the grapes for each of their exquisite wines, Stardance 2022 Pinot Noir remains the shining star of their collection.

Beth & Chris continue to be dedication to organic practices and sustainable production. Continuing Glenn passion while transforming it into today’s premium wine is Stardance.

What about the name?

Stardance’s founder, Glenn, was fascinated by Rudolf Steiner and biodynamic growing practices.  He was certain that the celestial bodies had an influence on all growing things, and he saw life as a joyous dance.
Put those together and you get Stardance.
