WILLAMETTE VALLEY VINEYARDS FROM THE DESK OF JIM BERNAU https://www.wvv.com/ Dear Wine Enthusiast, As a supporter of Willamette Valley Vineyards and someone who has indicated an interest in becoming a Winery Owner, please accept this invitation to join our Owner community and become part of the thriving Oregon Wine Industry. You are among those who have exclusive, first access to our Preferred Stock Offering (NASDAQ: WVVIP) price of $5.15 per share, the same price given at the end of our last stock offering. The share price will increase to $5.25 per share on September 1st, 2022, and we will start a public advertising campaign for the offering. As the winery grows, you will help take the Oregon wine story on the road to exciting new locations. You will be part of the Tasting Room & Restaurants opening this year in Oregon and Southwest Washington, as well as Domaine Willamette, a sparkling winery opening soon in Oregon's Dundee Hills. These expansions are possible due to the same spirit that led many Owners to plant our vineyards in years past and lend a hand to construct our winery and Estate Tasting Room in the Salem Hills. As we invite new Owners to join us, priority to become an Owner is being given to wine enthusiasts who will support their investment as Wine Club Members or use their dividends as wine credit. In this way, our winery becomes stronger with each devoted Owner. Thank you for your continued support,

Founder Jim Bernau believes among the healthiest forms of business are those owned by the community. Jim’s vision of organizing the support of wine enthusiasts to make world-class wines through shared ownership has resulted in more than 24,000 Owners. Willamette Valley Vineyards became the first SEC-authorized community- funded business in the United States through the first successful Regulation A self-underwritten public offering in 1989. The winery has grown with the support of wine enthusiasts through Preferred Stock Ownership (NASDAQ: WVVIP) funding new vineyards, wineries and experiences. OREGON'S LEADING PRODUCER OF WILLAMETTE VALLEY APPELLATED PINOT NOIR The winery sources all of its barrel-aged Pinot Noir from its estate-grown vineyards and meticulously farms, by hand, nearly 500 acres in the hills of the valley. STEWARDSHIP OF THE LAND Since the winery’s founding in 1983, stewardship of the land has been the key principle in our winemaking and farming practices. The estate vineyards are certified sustainable through LIVE (Low Input Viticulture and Enology) and Salmon-Safe. In addition, Willamette Valley Vineyards was the first winery in the world to use cork certified through Preferred by Nature™ to Forest Stewardship Council standards and use an autonomous UV-C Light Robot to sustainably prevent powdery mildew in the vineyards.
