Jon Hansen

Jon Hansen started his wine career in 2019 after moving here from his childhood home of Chicago, where he developed a lifelong passion for racing sailboats. He landed in the wine industry running a mobile bottling trailer and enjoyed working with different winemakers in Oregon. The intertwining of machine and grace to bottle wine drove a new passion for all things related. Jon moved to Stoller Family Estate, operating the bottling line there and had the opportunity to step into production during harvest. His journey brought him to Vinovate where he is excited to continue his career journey in the world of wine.

Jon still finds time to go to the coast frequently and go to the mountains with his partner and their dog. Jon enjoys tending to his plants, a little home baking on the weekends and admiring the beauty of Oregon when not working with wine.
