Wineries near Aurora

“This is absolutely one of our favorite wineries. The staff are always incredibly friendly. There are some wonderful light bites and local hazelnuts at an incredibly affordable price to enjoy with your tasting. The variety of wines are excellent. If you are a lover of big bold and jammy reds or just red wines in general, this is definitely a winery you will want to visit. The tasting experience is also enjoyable in that they will take a moment to share about the wines and it is not a "canned" experience. It's worth taking the time to stop.“

“Good wine, great views, fantastic service. I recently tasted at Blakeslee with a few wine club members. The excitement began during the drive up to the tasting room from the roadway, where incredible views across the valley took my breath away. The clear vistas on the fall day were gorgeous, with much of the Cascade Range in view.Once inside, we were greeted in a warm, bright space that felt comforting and familiar. There was football on, views galore, and plenty of fascinating Oregon history and wine country information - a true space for anyone! Mary was our server (I think), and she was very helpful for the entire journey. It was great to learn so much about the history of the land and the current owners.I enjoyed tasting the variety of wines produced on the property and nearby, and I definitely preferred the rosé blend and the Chardonnays. If you are a fan of Pinots, you will like them, too, but the aromas and flavors are slightly tamer than my preference for bright fruit and spice notes.We also ordered a charcuterie board, and the crew was very accommodating to all of our needs. We spent some time walking the grounds, too, and I can absolutely see myself returning to drink some rosé by the pool in summer.“

“Met Kerry for the first time today and enjoyed his wine and life wisdom along with DELICIOUS WINES! The hour or so we spent together was superb! The wines are perfectly priced—and we Highly recommend this tasting experience! Still, If we were in a “higher income bracket” I am sure we would have purchased several cases! We picked a few favorites and will definitely come back’“

“A little piece of Europe in Canby, OR. I'm a newish member of this winery and every time we visit, we are treated like rock stars. A full selection of wines, VERY friendly staff and beautiful grounds where we are welcome to take a walk to visit the llamas with our sips. There is usually music on the weekends and food carts in the warmer months. I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. We feel like family at St Josef's.“

“One of my top 3 wine tasting experiences. The tasting room is a cozy setting - reservations required ahead of time.We had the pleasure of meeting Andrew Beckham, owner & ceramic artist. He shared the family journey of how the estate came to be a ceramic studio & wine vineyard, and what inspired them to dedicate their skills towards organic and eco-consciously produced wine. Our visit ended with a tour of the large terracota vessels in the production area - highly recommended!The red wines are smooth and soft compared to other traditional red wines (probably due to the aging process). The whites are on the fruitier side, good for the warmer season.“

“Unbelievably gorgeous. 35 acres with multiple Mountain View’s on a clear day. It’s a new tasting room for an old vineyard. Plenty of beautiful spaces to enjoy your wine. They are heavy on the Pinot selections. Right now they don’t offer food but you can bring a picnic to enjoy.“

“Everyone was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the wine. The view was beautiful, even on an overcast day. The tasting room had a very cozy atmosphere, and the wine was great. We ended up leaving with a bottle of champagne for the new year!“
