Other notes

Named for Bella Vida's first full time employee Ted Leroy Crawford or simply TLC Pinot Noir

Ted was rooted in the Dundee Hills. He was our friend, our brother and caretaker. Ted was a "jack of all trades" and a skilled machinist. Above all, Ted was a generous man, giving selflessly of his time and person the community of Dundee. To keep his spirit alive, we have established a fund supporting Newberg High School's Career & Technical Education programs in his name. Your purchase of this memorial wine will be a contribution to that fund.

We miss and remember you Ted!
