About winemaker Rob Stuart

Rob grew up far away from Oregon’s wine country, having braved the winters of Buffalo, New York. He was initially introduced to wine when he visited his Uncle in England at 17 years old. It was there he tried a 1961 Bollinger Brut, which opened his eyes to the world of wine and initiated his quest to create his own perfect sparkling wine. Says Rob, “Methode champenoise is my first love, and will always be – other than Maria, of course.”

He went on to earn a degree in biochemistry from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York, and had a short but eye-opening career in the biochem labs at Baylor University in Texas. Afterward, he enrolled in viticulture and enology courses at U.C. Davis, where he was advised by Dr. Anne Nobel to go straight into the industry to gain experience from others. This led him to begin his winemaking journey on the bottling line at Hans Kornell in Napa, California, then to Southern Oregon’s Valley View Vineyards, and eventually to Staton Hills in Yakima, Washington where he made wine for ten years.

Rob managed to return to Oregon in 1994 when he became the winemaker at Erath Vineyards. It was during this time that he met Maria, and after making wine for other producers for more than twenty years, Rob and his partners founded R. Stuart & Co. Winery in 2001. “I had a clear vision of how I wanted wines to be made. I felt that many wines were synthesized by technique and barrels, and the fruit was not respected. My goal from day one was to showcase the hard work that the vineyard stewards and owners put into making and growing the fruit, and what made them each distinctive.”

About Big Fire Wines

We like to call Big Fire wines our “Tuesday night wines.” These are wines you’ll open when you get home from work and are looking to enjoy a glass as you’re making dinner… and then another glass with dinner.

The wines with the Big Fire label – Pinot gris and Pinot noir – are fresh, lively, friendly, and intended for everyday drinking. The Love, Oregon wines are crafted in homage to the pioneering spirit of Oregonians, then and now. Somehow they bring out the romantic in us every time. Our Reserve and specialty wines bear the more traditional R. Stuart & Co. label, and include classic Pinot noirs designed to marry the best of Burgundian and New World winemaking styles.
