We had a lovely visit here and did end up buying a delicious Riesling, a Gamay and a Pinot Noir. The lady who did our tasting was informative and very helpful. Told us about the history of the place and about the llamas. It would be fun to do an event here as the views are amazing. Would have liked a wider variety of wines to try. We tried 4 Pinot Noirs and one Chardonnay on the tasting menu but ended up buying 2 that weren't on the tasting menu. The llamas are adorable!

Beautiful grounds, great tasting wines and welcoming staff. Tried 2 whites and 2 Pinot Noirs. Appreciate the attention provided to the discussion of the wines. Would definitely come back again when the weather is warmer to explore the grounds.

Amazing vineyard. Ken, Zach, and Corwyn made this an incredible experience for us as we traveled in specifically for this vineyard. Great wine and customer service. Couldn't speak more highly of this establishment and recommend that anyone in the area visit here.

Service here was excellent, you can tell that she loves doing what she does. Often times a sit down tasting you're hearing so much about the life of the person pouring your wine or about the bottle that you can't really enjoy the wine or the company you're with - this was not that. Our host did an amazing job of balancing our experience and showing so much passion behind what she does. The cheese selection was excellent and overall ambiance was great - the music was perfect for the kind of day you imagine spending at a winery tasting room. The wines were not anything to rave about, great but not amazing or unique.

Made reservations a couple weeks in advance of our visit. Provided credit card to prepay for mom and sister and me. Got to tasting and Ron was our server. The wines we were offered were terrible. One of the worst tastings ever. All three of us choked down first two my sister dumped one and we were never offered dump bucket as if that’s insult. The third tasting I left in the glass and we waited so long in between. The clue is if someone is leaving essentially the full tasting in a glass they don’t want it. Ron was too busy with other people who obviously were big spenders. We were one of three groups and there were other people serving others too. No idea why we spent almost two hours there. My sister purchased a bottle out of pity. It was the best of the horrible. When she went to purchase Ron asked how the tastings needed to be charged and my sister said oh well my sister already paid and he said oh no we don’t charge the credit card. I thought that was unusual because everywhere else charged the cards when we booked ahead. Then on top of that the tastings were 5 dollars more a piece. There was no way we were each buying 3 bottle a piece to save on tasting fee. I even have the email stating 30 each not 35. The worst experience of our entire weekend. Oh and they had awful yellow jacket problem with them swarming.

We were staying nearby and decided to stop by. We did not have a reservation but the website said "advanced reservations encouraged", not required. We showed up about 1.25 hours before closing on a Wednesday. There was a tasting happening outside so we waited inside for about 15 minutes. No one acknowledged us in any way. There were at least 2 staff members on site and other than the 2 guests doing their tasting, there were no other patrons. I don't know if it's a Willamette Valley trait or a product of COVID but the idea that we are unwelcome intruders if we haven't made an advanced reservation just did not sit well with us. We would have been happy to simply purchase a glass or bottle of wine and learn a little about the property if they were unable to do a full tasting but to be utterly ignored was shocking.

Beautiful view! This is such a lovely place to taste wine. The hosts were very gracious and hospitable. Two people in my party weren’t even drinking, but said it was a very relaxing place to spend the day.The cheeses they offer are top-notch as well!

This place is amazing. We will be back! We had such a good experience here on my husband's birthday--they truly made the experience special. Get the cheese and snacks board--it's top notch.

My husband and I went on a date here and really enjoyed the experience! The atmosphere felt very quiet and relaxing. The wines were very unique. The service was amazing! We left with 6 bottles (which is unusual for us)!

This place is so incredible, it’s worth a stop on your honeymoon. Stephanie was so knowledgeable, so sweet/hospitable, and exceeded our expectations in every way. All the wines were fantastic, and the grounds are beautiful. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area! :)

Great wine at a beautiful location. Ron poured some amazing wine and shared stories that made the whole experience very enjoyable! I can’t wait to come back and ride in the Land Rover.

Great pricing & tasty wine. The staff is out of this world & so great to make you feel like you’re in the right place. The furry staff next door also provides a very enjoyable atmosphere.
