Pinot Vista Tasting Lounge

Popped in for a wine tasting during a small Bachelorette weekend, we enjoyed the wines, service, and vibes. Live music was so fun but didn't overpower our conversations. There may have been some sing-along. If I could, I'd give an extra star for the people there, they paid attention to our glasses & we never had to wait between tastes, even with 5 of us, and they had a good sense of humor. We enjoyed our visit!

Wine was not great. No industry discount. Server couldn't tell us anything about the wine. Definitely better options nearby. Save yourself the $25 tasting fee.

Stopped in for a "taste of Pinot" and met Rich who poured us some very tasty wines including Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc (very tasty). Spent quite awhile in a very relaxed atmosphere. Of course it was a Sunday and perfect for us!We visited a second time without Rich and we spent time outside On a rather windy and cold afternoon as the venue was hosting a private party. We were later invited indoors which made our second visit nice.Recommend this location in downtown McMinville as it has a different ambiance than your standard wine tasting venues! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Parking: Street parking is available; with city parking lots nearby. Sundays are free to park; other days, pay at meter parking. Don't take my word, READ ALL SIGNS!!

My wife and I visited this tasting room once as novice tasters and had an amazing experience! Just to verify that it wasn't a fluke we came back a second time and it was just as fantastic as the first time! Rich is a very personable and professional host!

Have a seat at the bar you will receive great service, fantastic atmosphere and amazing wine (the munchies help). Did I say Rich is the best host!! If not he certainly is! Locals and out of towners are equally comfortable in a location that makes u feel at home.

The folks who work here are lovely and the number of wines to try! So many and they are very knowledgeable. High class wines in a very casual relaxed atmosphere, laid back like you’re on someone’s front porch. Wish we lived closer or we would be here more!!! Much love from Olympia to you guys!

While most of the other shops, boutiques and tasting rooms on 3rd St. were closing up for the evening, Pinot Vista was just getting started. My wife and I saw a two-piece band setting up for their performance through the window, and decided to pop in for a glass (or two) and some live entertainment.We were warmly welcomed into this classy (seeminly family run) little space, ordered a chardonnay (I didn't catch the name), Rose of Tempranillo (which my wife liked so much, she ordered one for herself afterward), and the Gewurstraminer (which ended up being my favorite). All the while, we were engaged and entertained by the two members of the band, who were amused by our toddler's sons utter fascination with them and their music. Big thanks to both of them, and the owners of Pinot Vista, for allowing and taking pleasure in our son's wanderings and exploration! He was enraptured!Such a relaxing environment, couple with some wonderful wine, beautiful music, and spending time with family without any responsibilities or expectations, is the perfect way to spend a Saturday evening, and I can't imagine many better places in McMinnville than here at Pinot Vista! We will definitely be back, the next time we find ourselves in town.

My favorite place to be! Entertainment is awesome and everyone is so fun. We all get into the entertainment! I love the atmosphere! Rich is so friendly and kind, great people to be around!

Charity & Rich are AMAZING! Great customer service, great wines, great people. They made our private event super easy & fun! We always have a good time there & the tasting room is super comfortable & nice.

Relaxed, unpretentious tasting room. Local decor and rustic ambience made for a comfy atmosphere whilst we sipped on some lovely local wines. A must visit for tourists and locals.

Pleasant people,great wine and live music.

Quaint atmosphere. Great Selection of wine. Try the Primo Tivo! Its delicious!!!!

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!

Fantastic experience at Pinot Vista! Rich, Charity and Lisa will make you feel right at home and are super friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. Fabulous wines! Best tasting room in McMinnville! Don't miss this gem!
