The 484-acre property gives one of Oregon’s most singular wineries the room to create immersive, season-long encounters in an expanded landscape.
June 11, 2026 (Eola-Amity Hills, OR) — Antica Terra has acquired Willakia Vineyard, expanding its estate to 484 contiguous acres in the Eola-Amity Hills, establishing the largest single holding in the AVA. For a winery that has farmed, produced, and invested in this hillside for more than two decades, the significance of the acquisition lies not only in securing the ability to grow production in future generations, but in what the winery can now invite its members and guests to experience. It is an investment in the Eola-Amity Hills, in the Willamette Valley, and in what the Oregon wine landscape is still becoming.
With native oak woodland, gardens, vineyards, exhibition grounds and seasonal waterways now held under a single vision, Antica Terra is able to offer something rare in American wine: an unhurried, immersive encounter within a complete landscape. The expanded estate gives the winery room to welcome guests across a full arc of experiences that move between vineyard, cellar, meadow, museum, and table without ever leaving the property.
That vision builds on foundations already in place. The 2023 acquisition of the neighboring Keeler Estate Vineyard brought the Barrel Hall and the seasonal Table in the Trees and outdoor museum, along with an expanded approach to hospitality rooted in the same principles that shape the wines. The additional ground at Willakia extends what is possible — horseback tours through working vineyards and woodlands, biodynamic farming workshops, orchard gatherings paced to the rhythm of the farm, and a culinary and cultural program with room, at last, to match its ambition. Landscape architects Terremoto, whose practice is grounded in ecological attentiveness and care for native systems, will help shape the long vision for the site.
“The point was not to make more wine today,” said winemaker Maggie Harrison. “It was to make more room — for people to slow down, to celebrate the landscape, its distinction, and its gifts. That is the experience this land now lets us offer.”
“We’re holding space,” Harrison said, “for the people who will care for this ground long after us, and in the belief that the most meaningful work to be done here is still ahead.”
“Land held with intention accumulates meaning,” she added. “It raises what’s possible for everyone working here — and for everyone we welcome to the property.”
