NW Wine Company, founded in 2003, contains 1200 acres of planted vineyard in Dundee Hills, Oregon. The winery was the first fully specialized custom crush winery in the Willamette Valley. They bottle 3 of their own brands as well as for outside vineyards and companies.

Before making the switch to generating nitrogen, NW Wine Company had stored nitrogen in dewars. Dewars contain liquid nitrogen that is managed by a third-party gas company who replaces empty dewars with full ones. Depending on levels of nitrogen consumption, a dewar may last as short a time as one day.

In addition, dewars are constantly venting into the atmosphere to keep pressure levels inside the container manageable. Recently, the winery needed to expand its operation, adding a second bottling line with twice the capacity of the original line. With twice the wine to bottle, they needed twice the nitrogen. The winery wanted a nitrogen generator capable of supplying the entire winery, not just one bottling line. Cameron contacted Rogers to get the process started.
