Brilliant, highly rated wines in an charming tasting room with super friendly staff (thanks Tekla!)

Sorry for my late review, as I did this special tasting with Tekla about 6 months ago, and re-found her card, that reminded me of the great experience. Being a boutique winery, with Isabella's french take on Willamette Valley wines. I am a member/employee with WVV, and loved how she customized my tasting to me, with grapes coming from the same vineyards. You need to make an appointment, and while $45 for a tasting (which is nothing in the Dundee Hills), you get some great french influenced tastings. Since there is a small production, wines are $78-95 a bottle, but think they waive the flight cost with 2-3 bottles. I hope to return and actually meet the winemaker.On a side bar, there are a few good places for lunch. Horseradish down the street, and Earth & Sea and Cuvee for dinner.

What a wonderful, personalized tasting with a very knowledgeable hostess (Tekla)! We loved it enough to buy 3 pinots and 3 chards. Quiet tasting room right in the heart of Carlton! Highly recommend!!!

WOW! Amazing wines and love the team at Lavinea. Thanks for hosting our team and for pouring a few library wines for us. It was a very memorable experience in the Valley for us all.

Just left & had to post this review immediately. This place was phenomenal. My husband makes wine so I am in a saturated environment & yet this was one of the greatest tastings with some of the best wine. Isabelle is a genius. Her wine is beyond compare. Also, the tasting room manager, Jas, could not have been a more delightful human. Just… the best experience.
