My husband and I were celebrating our Anniversary and went to five wineries in the area. There is a lot of good wine in the area but our best experience was at Winter’s Hill. Matt met us with a sparkling Pinot Gris. Oregon does their sparking wines well. Winter’s Hill had great Pinot Noir and wonderful white wines too. We joined the wine club and are excited for our wine shipments. The customer service is outstanding. Visit - you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful winery in a beautiful setting. Laid back and not thronged with people. Great wines too!
Heidi Jacobsen-Watts
Delicious wine, beautiful views, and fun people - highly recommend.

We arrived on a beautiful spring day for a 11:00 tasting. Rachel was all ready for us. We had been there over 10 years ago. It is nice to see the small winery is still small with wonderful wines to boot. The view was spectacular.
Kim Bickford
This is an amazing small intimate special winery. Our service was outstanding. The wines were so fun to try and we enjoyed the relaxed nature of the tasting. We’ll be back!
Joyce Wescott
We always enjoy our visits, today the weather was perfect!
Brent Gregory
Beautiful view, great wine, and amazing service! Rachel Lynn was fantastic! Grabbed some charcuterie from Graze Craze for the perfect wine tasting snacks. Highly recommend both.
Tim Silvestre
Beautiful setting with great wine and service. We were fortunate to meet the owner and the winemaker; both were delightful. Highly recommend visiting Winter’s Hill.
Kristen Keller
We had a great tasting experience! The wine was very good and everything was explained well, we never felt rushed or pressured to buy anything extra but we did bring a bottle home of our favorite wine we tasted yesterday! Great experience, thank you!

My wife, daughter, & daughter in law joined me on a visit to this beautiful place for a wine tasting. We were treated very well by the wonderful team at Winters Hill. Most importantly, the wine did not disappoint. The Pinot Noir Dundee Hills, the 21 Chardonnay, and the dessert wine stole the show. We did not leave empty handed and a case was shipped to the house! Worth every dollar!!
Great outdoor tasting area overlooking the vineyards. Matt was very helpful with our tasting. We also met Russell, the owner and winemaker--what a treat!

Simply the best wine in the valley. And the best people, too!
Sue Davis
Beautiful winery with friendly staff and delicious wines. Probably the best Pinot Noir I've ever tasted in their 2019 Block 9 Pommard. I highly recommend this winery if you are in the Willamette Valley.

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.

This is our second visit to Winter's Hill in 12 months. We came Labor Day last year and loved the wines and team at the Vineyard. We became club members and were excited to return this year to share it with our friends. Head Winemaker Russell made our second trip even more enjoyable spending nearly an hour with us answering our questions and sharing the history of the vineyard and their winemaking process. I cannot say enough about the experience and I haven't even talked about the wine!
This is one of the few vineyards where quality of the wines is more important than quantity; and it shows in every wine we have every tasted from Winter's Hill. From our first glass at our first tasting last year, to every bottle we have opened at home, to the impromptu tasting we stumbled into after our second planned tasting (they were sampling older wines to ensure consistency and happily let us join in), we have never been disappointed.
Winter's Hill is truly a family vineyard that has stuck to its core values since it's beginning and that is reflected in its quality and consistency of the wine. I say this so anyone reading this review doesn't have the same expectations when they visit Winter's Hill and try to compare it to a wine tasting at another vineyard just up the hill where you sample wines brought in from France. We have been to both and are members of both. But we value our experiences at each and every winery we visit inherent to what they offer and deliver. In that regard, Winter's Hill will always be one our favorite Vineyards to visit, favorite to bring our friends, and they consistently deliver us a favorite wine to share at our table for any occasion.
Special thanks to Russel for taking the time to make our experience special and welcoming our friends. We cannot say enough good things about the experience.
