5 Best Wineries near Portland

“I had such a great time at Arrigoni for Mother's Day. The wine slushies were delicious, the staff is nice, the band and ambiance were great. An outstanding experience all around.“

“Cute farm with an even cuter dog! Friendly and knowledgeable staff/owners. We tried a flight plus one. Very unique wines, tomato was a sweet hit! Awesome selection of ciders and all is affordable. We will be back next time we’re in town. Did I mention the dog? Make sure and give Daisy a pet!“

“There is no doubt that Gouveia is photographer’s dream, and as full-time wedding photographers, we have captured engagements and even surprise proposals here on the beautiful property. Whenever a client asks about a nice view in the hills, a vineyard or winery, something that feels almost like Europe, we tell them we should go here! We love how much the owners and staff allow us to use the property with ease. The scenic vineyard looks like a perfect set was constructed for us, and the long leading lines of the rows and driveway all help our captures. We love going by the pond with couples, too, making it feel even more like we have transported to somewhere that isn’t Connecticut. It’s never a problem having other visitors there, or being able to hide and then catch the moment the proposal is happening. You can blend in and then pop out with any family or friends to the jubilant couple, moving right into the engagement session on the perfect property for it. Sunsets are always because of the clouds, and if you hit the right evening, it can be unforgettable here. The couples all grab some glasses at some point as well and love the offerings Gouveia has in all regards. Thanks again to the staff for helping elevate all of our occasions on the property, and we can’t wait to be back for more! Scott Kruitbosch @scottkruitbosch Noella Barone @photosbynoella“

“Always a pleasure when I’m at Paradise Hill“

“I never ever write reviews, but this place was outstanding and deserves it. My fiance and I went to a comedy night this past Friday. It was our first time going there, even though we live 6 min down the road.(I know, we've been missing out!) The bar staff was amazing in explaining the various types of wine, even allowing sampling before purchasing a glass. I've been to many wineries and the food/snacks are always overpriced. I love that you can purchase snacks here at a reasonable price AND they allow you to bring your own food-so fun! The atmosphere was cozy and just so beautiful. The show was great, we didn't stop laughing the entire time. We also met Toby and chatted with Karen and her husband,Larry? I believe. They gave us a quick history of how the winery came to be and they just seemed like the most genuine, nicest people ever. (Toby was the main attraction though!) We can't wait to go back again soon and try more wines/beers and join in the events that take place. It's such a beautiful, friendly place that is so welcoming. if you haven't been, run! Thank you everyone for the amazing experience.“
