Get to Know Me
For more than two decades, Rita has represented some of the most significant vineyard, winery, agricultural, and luxury estate transactions throughout the world-renowned Willamette Valley. Through her leadership of Oregon Wine Country Properties and her affiliation with Barnes International, she has cultivated relationships with distinguished investors, entrepreneurs, wine industry leaders, and ultra-high-net-worth clientele from around the globe.
Rita's influence extends well beyond Oregon. She has been invited to share the story of Oregon Wine Country on an international stage, most recently speaking in Paris at the Louvre, while promoting the Willamette Valley's unique combination of heritage, agriculture, luxury lifestyle, and global investment appeal.
Known for her authenticity, tireless work ethic, and unparalleled understanding of vineyard and winery properties, Rita has earned the trust of some of the wine industry's most recognized producers, investors, and visionaries. Her ability to connect extraordinary people with extraordinary properties has made her a sought-after advisor in one of the world's most prestigious wine regions.
Perhaps most valuable is what cannot be found on any listing platform. Rita's decades of deep, trusted relationships within Oregon Wine Country's legacy families and founding producers have positioned her at the center of the region's most private transactions. In a world where the most significant vineyard and estate transfers often happen quietly, away from public markets and outside traditional channels, Rita's network and her long-standing reputation for discretion give her clients access to opportunities that simply never reach the open market. Legacy families trust her. And that trust is everything.
As LUXE continues to expand its presence among ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, luxury investors, and global influencers, Rita's expertise adds a powerful dimension to our platform. Through the combined strength of LUXE's market leadership, the global reach of Forbes Global Properties, and our ACCESS philosophy, Rita's clients will enjoy unprecedented exposure, relationships, and opportunities on a worldwide scale.
