Wineries near Independence

“Thoroughly enjoyed our evening here. Nice wine, with the Malbec being the winner for us. Delicious pizza, and great to find a gluten free crust. The live music was awesome. Pretty vineyard. Pleasant service. Seating/chairs could be more comfortable, but that's a super, minor issue. We'd recommend.“

“Our first visit to Ankeny Vineyard. Celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary. We came out to listen to the live music. The setting was perfect, the staff was amazing and the pizza was delicious. We bought a bottle of the Phelan-Becker Red Blend to enjoy during the event-Fantastic! We live in Portland, but looking forward to visiting again in the future“

“My wife and I were recently in the Willamette Valley area of Oregon tasting wines. We came upon La Chouette Vineyard and decided to visit. We did not have an appointment, but were able to get in - and are we glad we did. The tasting area is on the back patio of the estate overlooking one of the most beautiful valleys - absolutely stunning beauty. The wines (Pinots) were delicious - the place is so peaceful and beautiful that we did not want to leave. We highly recommend La Chouette!“

“Beautiful estate with great wine. They do tasting by appointment, glasses and food. As walkins on a Saturday we were able to purchase wine and food and enjoy them in the Oak Grove at picnic tables. Tried 3 different wines and they were all wonderful.“

“Sometimes in the Willamette it’s hard to find an inclusive, all age appropriate winery that offers relaxed, inviting yet fun vibes. Stomp is our typical after work or outdoor adventure stop. Located along the river, Stomp offers wonderful food and wine pairings. Their white wine selection is amazing for a very fair price. Their red wine is a staple in our household for evenings next to the fire or with friends. A young and fun must-stop that will turn into your fav local shop! Stick around and you’ll be impressed by the ever changing lineup of events!“

“Very pleasant ☺️! The wines are delicious, the view of the valley is great, the setting is homey and easy-going - just what we like ??. Megan, our server, was knowledgeable, easy to visit with...we noticed that she took the time to visit with each of the parties there as she made the rounds. It was obvious to us that it wasn't "just a job" to her. We really like Redgate and we'll be back again ?♥️“

“After not being able to make a reservation online, I called and talked to a very nice gentleman. I told him we were coming home from the coast about 15 minutes away and asked if we could come in for a tasting. He said they weren't taking anymore tasting reservations for the day but we were welcome to come in for a glass of wine. We were welcomed in and the gentleman introduced us to Reegan who was very helpful and also very nice. They have a beautiful tasting room, with flavorful wines. On the enclosed unheated patio, they provide blankets. Lovely afternoon. We can't wait to go again when we can try more in a tasting.“

“Nice tasting experience! The staff was knowledgeable and fun to chat with. We did the Groupon which was good but would’ve been worth the tasting price regardless. A little off the beaten path and wouldn’t have found it without the Groupon, but glad we did!“

“Founded in the 1980s, this gem in the heart of Willamette Valley started as a wine dream in a wheat field. Today, it stands as one of Oregon's largest wineries, cultivating over 325 acres of prime vineyard land. The Legacy Estate Tasting Room has breathtaking views of the vineyard and valley. Sipping on their estate grown wines from vineyards in Eola-Amity Hills is a journey through the spirit and flavors of Oregon. Cheers to the vision of founder Tom Huggins and the continued legacy of Eola Hills Wine Cellars!“

“My book club meets here. They have solid wines, many of which are very affordable for the high quality. The tasting room here is good for winter, and has a lot of space. If it's sunny though and I want to drink Eola I will head to their legacy location instead!“
