the people

Inspired by women, founded by a woman, and operated by women, the Burton Bittman Wines team is small but mighty.

    PROPRIETRESS, WINEMAKER

    Inspired to take on the second-generation project of making wine from the vineyards her parent’s planted, Anneka skipped from journalism to winemaking. She completed her Brevet de Technician Superior Agricole in 2014 at the CFPPA in Beaune, France. She continues her education serving as a member of the Oregon Wine Board Research Committee and balances managing Burton Bittman Wines with her work for Vinbound Marketing.

    VITICULTURALIST

    Growing up in agriculture in Corning, California, Kathy’s dream was always to have a farm. Her vision was more of a red barn and lots of animals, but ultimately it become a brown barn and lots of grapevines. As the demands of the growing vines increased, Kathy left her career in healthcare management to focus on the vineyard full time. A farmer at heart, Kathy pursued LIVE Certification for Tukwilla Vineyard and serves on the Oregon Wine Board Research Committee. She’s always looking for ways to farm better!

    ESTATE MANAGEMENT

    Lee loves nothing more than a freshly turned earth. After almost 40 years working as a clinical pharmacist for Providence Portland Medical Center, Lee retired in 2019. After decades of working full time and spraying or harvesting on his “days off”, Lee is finally free to farm. He’s always looking for the next intriguing clone or great improvement in vineyard machinery. A hedonist at heart, his enthusiasm for life extends to fly fishing, whiskey, non-Pinot noir wines, baking bread, and great music.

    SALES COORDINATION

    Not one, but both daughters have been drawn back to the wine industry. After completing her B.A. in Chemistry while swimming competitively for the University of Puget Sound, Hannah sought adventure working harvest in the southern hemisphere. She put in the graft at Vavsour in New Zealand and Yering Station in Australia. After her time in the cellar, Hannah pivoted to wine sales and currently works for another Dundee Hills winery. Her weekends are devoted to backpacking around Oregon.
