A prominent Oregon winemaker has filed suit against a neighboring grass-seed farmer, claiming that herbicide drifted over from the farmer's fields and destroyed a high-end grape crop. Willamette Valley Vineyards lost 12.7 tons of pinot noir grapes, according to the company's lawsuit filed against Five Cent Farm on Tuesday in Polk County Circuit Court.
