13 Best Wine Bars in Mcminnville

“My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time here. Robin (our wine tasting guide) did an excellent job of explaining all of the wines to us and was so much fun chatting with. She really knew the wines and how they were grown and did a wonderful job of explaining everything. We ended up leaving the tasting room with more wines to take home than we expected. A great experience and fun location!“

“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.“

“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 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.“

“Great place to do a side-by-side tasting of 4-6+ single varietal Pinot Noirs, plus some whites and bubbles (real Champagne style). The warm rosemary cashews were an excellent accompaniment that helped to bring out the variations in the 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.“

“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 wine and the service are both fantastic.“

“A beautiful spot to enjoy a glass of wine & fresh creative food delicacy. A true special occasion destination.“

“I enjoyed the atmosphere and warm welcome food was ughmazing“

“We stopped in while driving by on a Sunday morning and had a great time. Sahara took great care of us. She was very knowledgeable and fun to talk to. We were impressed by all of their wines! If you are in the area I would definitely stop by to check the place out and try some wine“

“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!“
