“Stopped here on a whim and this was exactly the kind of place I was hoping to stumble upon in wine country! Small, family-owned, excellent wine from local vineyards.
David was so hospitable and informative (and funny!) and the wines were interesting and delicious. We were particularly impressed by the white and rose offerings that were far more complex than you sometimes see. The pinot noir was also lovely.
Reasonable tasting fee waived with 2 bottle purchase. Highly recommend!“
“Stopped in for a tasting and ended up spending way more time than expected! If you’re a Pinot noir fan this is THE place - loved the wine and chatting with everyone there. Offered some great local recs and history/ stories of the area. Highly recommend as a first stop to get a lay of the land!“

“Had a great tasting experience here on a rainy afternoon! So cozy inside on the couches and our host Brit was so lovely to talk to. I loved hearing about the history of the place and seeing the soil in jars 🤓 and the wines were excellent. I loved and would totally buy almost all of the ones we tasted. Great spot for wine tasting year round and love the wines!“

“Excellent experience tasting Big Bold Reds with Teresa. Always a pleasure to chat with her and Hedrian. If need a change from Pinot Noir, stop in and enjoy the amazing varitels. Also, Stark wines are available from Roxanne, the wine makers daughter. We always feel like family when we stop by. This is a wonderful tasting room to stop & enjoy the view & wines. Cheers“

“We decided to stop in for a glass of wine before going to dinner. Such a great spot. We tasted several wines and bought a glass or two. Kara was the perfect host and we enjoyed our before dinner drinks. Highly recommend if you are downtown McMinnville.“
“The best! Such a beautiful experience! We felt incredibly blessed to stumble upon this tasting room. Jennifer was outstanding. She took time to explain the history of the winery & the family while weaving in information about biodynamic winemaking. The gardens & views are sublime as well.“

“We were here for the last night of our vacation in Oregon. We'd done some wine tasting, and a lot of the winery workers recommended coming here, so we did. It was super fun.
We came in, and the space is really nice. It has a pool table in the back, lots of seating at the bar as well as comfy couches, chairs and tables all around, and a huge chandelier with old-school Edison bulbs. There's also a large collection of vinyl records - fun choices. All and all, a nice ambience, with some playfulness and an adult vibe.
We got some food and some wine - my husband got a tempranillo and a white Burgundy, and I got a sparkling rose and a Nerello Mascalese. All were tasty, well served, right temperature, right glasses. Just on point. The food was also surprisingly tasty and nicely prepared - this is way, way nicer than your average bar food, so adjust your expectations accordingly. We got some seasonal pasta and an onion tart, both of which were good, and no complaints there either. We were having a grand old time. We finished off with some dessert wine and blue cheese - great match.
We'd asked for some recommendations on what wines would be good with what food, what the differences between wines would be, and what might be fun to take a bottle home. I can't vouch for the take-home bottle yet, but all of the other info we got was spot-on. They know what they are doing.
We'd come back any day, and will the next time we're in Oregon. This is a great place to go for fantastic wine, good help, and a really happy friendly vibe. They take their wine seriously, and we're so pleased we went. But even if you only kind of like wine, or are just looking for a fun bar, go. You'll be happy you did.“
“We stopped here as we pulled into town because they were open late. What a lucky move on our part. Katie and Nora were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the wines. We especially liked the Gamay and the Pinot Gris! Not what we expected. Part 2 of this: we went back the next day to pick up bottles to take home and enjoyed more time sipping at the bar with Nora and Katie. They gave us restaurant recommendations nearby as well as suggestions for the next leg of our journey up the coast. So: good wine, lovely airy tasting room, and friendly professional staff. Definitely check it out. Oh, and try the port and tonic cocktail!“
“An amazing experience a great hospitality. Ryan always makes the experience for my wife and our guests enjoyable. I truly hate to tell you about this hidden gem but these guy's deserve the recognition. Hands down my favorite place to hangout and enjoy the sports on TV at the tasting room.“
“Ken is always so nice and helpful when my wife and I show up. I love going and getting tasting flight and just relaxing in the back on the couches. The storefront is very warm and inviting and if you get a chance to join the wine club the parties, he throws are so wonderful. Look them up and go have a taste. His 2021 Chardenay is what hooked us and we've been going back often ever since. The bonus is that Carlton is such a cute little town with lots of little shops and spots to eat or grab a cup of coffee.“
“We have been in this community since 92’ and have learned the immeasurable value of the people and businesses that care about this place we call home. Rich Washburn and Pinot Vista value leaving this community better than they found out it. It shows in everything they do. And they have great wines! 😎“
“The owners make you feel like family. It was a nice mix of different people. They will also make sure extremely drunk people don’t fall into you and gently guide them to another area. Very knowledgeable on wines and have a variety beyond the printed menu. Next time I’m in the area this a guaranteed spot to stop at.“
“I have gone a couple times now. My friend and I attended Bingo night and it was so fun! It is a beautiful space and recently enjoyed the covered patio with 2 other moms with our young babies in their strollers and felt very comfortable and relaxed. I really enjoyed the Stoller 2022 Pinot Noir and my friend had the Chehalem Valley Chardonnay. They have a refreshing cocktail menu and I liked the Lavender Lemon Drop. The pork belly BLT was delicious!!! My favorite sandwich right now. They have a veggie sandwich as well that is loaded. Everyone in the group loved the cookies. I highly recommend this spot and looking forward to checking out some of their other event nights.“

“Weary from the road and had not eaten much all day. Not interested in fast food all along my route. Found Trellis a few blocks from my destination and went inside. Smart move. Eclectic menu with knowledgeable staff and small dining room. Well worth the visit wherever your journey takes you.“
“Great time listening to live music and the hospitality was over the top! Y’all made these Texans feel right at home! Would def come back and will be buying more of their wines back in texas!“
“Ken Wright in Carlton, Oregon is a beautiful place for a delicious Pinot tasting. The tasting room is fabulous and the outside patio even better. Great wines, great staff ( I wish I had written down the gal’s name that hosted us) as she was knowledgeable, understood our palate and offered additional wines she thought we would like plus she was so fun. She also showed us the 1/2 Bottles we purchased for our at home wine tasting that evening. And of course we purchased other bottles. I recommend booking or stopping in Ken Wright Cellers.“

“This experience exceeded our expectations! We went there for our 15 year wedding anniversary they made sure we got recognized for it and celebrated us! The host was actually from Italy so he made you feel as if you were visiting Italy. Every wine and food course was given a detailed explanation of what is was how it was made and where it originated from! 5 star service 5 star food!“
“I went to Dobbes with a group of girlfriends for a friend’s bachelorette party. We had the BEST time. Not only was all of the wine delicious (and we all ended up buying a lot!) but the experience was top notch. Shout out to Kevin for being so enthusiastic, knowledgeable & punny! He truly made our day! We went to a few wineries after Dobbes & none of them measured up! I will definitely be back!“
“Love the scenery, the vineyards, setting, the choice in wines, friendly knowledgeable staff, and they are so friendly to my pug dog, Pancake!! Always take a different bottle home!!“

“Really nice estate wines. Jody does a great job talking through the history of the vineyards and describing the wines. If you're buying 6 bottles or more, consider signing up for the wine club for additional discounts and free shipping.“
“We spent a wonderful Sunday afternoon at Sealionne and look forward to going back. The views were stunning and the hospitality was supburb. All of the wine we tasted felt pretty darn special and I am excited to enjoy the bottle of pinot noir we brought home with us.“
“the wine and the service are both fantastic.“
“I love Rob's exceptional wines! As the Beverage Director at Sawgrass Country Club in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida I literally have access to just about any wine there is in the world, not just the Willamette Valley. While I haven't had a R.Stuart wine I did not enjoy, the single vineyard Daffodil Hill Pinot Noir is a stand out for me every year. I highly recommend stopping by Rob's tasting room when visiting Mcminnville. You will not be disappointed!“

“We met our Son from out of town for lunch. I had a gift card and we've been wanting to go there. Everyone was so friendly it felt like it wasn't our first time being there. The service was excellent and the food was so good and the portions were ample. We will definitely be dining there again.
Parking: We parked in the lot behind the restaurant as street parking was full.“
