12 Best Wineries in Dayton

“Met a new server named Ally, and her energy and humor/personality, made this place so approachable. It is such a lovely tasting room, with great food, and making wines inclusive, is key. They have a nice indoor space for the hot days, and a great patio area for the nice OR weather. Food is great, but if you come in after 5 (they close at 6), most hot items are not available. Deviled eggs were different than my prior experience and refreshing on a hot day. Thanks Ally!“

“Stopped here on a trip to Oregon. They weren’t able to accomodate us for a tasting ($30 apiece) so we bought a bottle of the chilled Pinot Noir and warm bread with olive oil. Lovely grounds with a beautiful view! Walk to the gift shop and taste all the delicious olive oils and balsamic vinegars for free!“

“Cute spot with gorgeous views. Easy to book online with good hours. Has a very farmy feel. Our pourer was very friendly and has a long knowledge of the area. Sat outside, unsure if there’s indoor seating so come prepared. They have an awesome option for traveling with wine or just great for outdoors: a giant pouch, kinda like an adult capri sun with pour spout. If you’re looking for a place that feels like homey on the porch of a farm then this is the place! You could plan a whole day hopping to adjacent wineries easily.“

“Sokol Blosser has a great story, beautiful view, and good wine. We ended up ordering a Butcher Board, and it was quite substantial. Every item on the board was delicious. The tasting is 4 wines, plus you get an extra pour upon arrival. Our experience was enjoyable, and we will return. It is right off 99W, so easy to find. If it's Friday or Saturday, wear your patience hat when leaving. Take your time getting on to 99W.“

“Went to the recent event at the winery, it was great! Good wine, and the staff was marvelous as always. The food was good, enjoyed it. But it was-is not appropriate for wine tasting. I do not understand the current trend of wineries inviting mexican food carts to wine tasting events. The food style tends to mess up ones palete. Beer or soda go great with Mexican food. Or possibly a huge red, but not the refined Pinot Noir and whites of the Willamette Valley.“

“Absolutely perfect tasting experience with our host Victoria. I have lived in the California wine country for much of my life and have experienced hundreds of wine tastings. Victoria may in fact have been the best host ( sommelier?) I have experienced. She assessed our interest and customized our wine experience accordingly. She has a deep deep
knowledge and love for the wine which she shares in a professional manner. The wine property is absolutely beautiful, the wines are very good and all in all our afternoon tasting there was just perfect.“

“This place is a treasure! It’s a true American story. Excellent wine. Independent, family-owned, built from the ground up by the fruits of the family’s labor, without the benefits (or restrictions) of wealthy backing. We were treated to a tasting of amazing Pinot Noirs, a white Pinot Noir/Pinot Gris blend, a Riesling, and an outstanding Tempranillo/Pinot blend under the shade of a beautifully appointed canvas tent amid the rows of vines, cooled by refreshing breeze on a warm day as the sounds of relaxing and diverse Latino music played in the background. The authenticity of the place cannot be understated. Elena‘s connection to the land and to the entire process made for an intimate experience. The tribute to her family’s Mexican roots made for a singular experience among wineries not just in the Willamette Valley, but anywhere. Our tasting felt like a true privilege. We leave here proud members, and look forward to coming back again and again.“

“We were lucky enough to do the cave tour with Mark this past Sunday. This was one of our highlights of our vacation. The property/caves are amazing, and Mark makes you feel right at home. The wines are stellar and the whole experience was really top notch hospitality. Thank you Mark and the team for making the visit so memorable.“

“Very laid back with old school pricing. Love their whites and Rose. They’re sold out of Sauvignon Blanc. Great deal and atmosphere although just off the highway.“

“Great wine tasting experience. Beautiful views and beautiful building pairs perfectly with several selections of flights to choose from. If you prefer a glass or bottle those are available too. And a menu of food items can compliment whatever you choose.“

“Beautiful views and setup there. The wines were great and it was unique to be able to do side by side tastings showcasing different winemaking techniques. We were disappointed that they didn’t waive the tasting fee unless purchasing a full case. Not one we would be in a hurry to return to with all of the other great options in the area.“

“Visited here after a local recommendation, it was a great visit to get introduced to the area and set the bar high for the wine in this region. It was a little disorganized getting our bottle to go and overall service was less than I would have expected for a winery at this price point.“
