“Located on the bank of the magnificent Columbia River with views of The Dalles Bridge and basalt cliffs across the way, this tasting room is a hidden gem! The wines I tasted were quite delicious, my favorite being a Cab Franc blend. After my tasting, i enjoyed a full glass. They offer a wonderful selection of food to accompany the wine, the charcuterie board has high quality meats, cheese, olives and a baguette. Enough for four. On weekends when the adjoining food hut is open, try whatever they are making! Tamales, tacos, sliders - you can't go wrong. Plenty of seating areas available to accommodate couples or groups. Inside there are views everywhere you look. The covered patio on the side is peaceful and serene, great on a warm day and provides shade during the super hot summer.Kids and dogs welcome!Small 2 man operation and it shows in the warm hospitality And friendly service. The owners have lots of chickens so you will often find beautiful fresh eggs for sale right at the bar. Pick up a dozen and some bottles to bring home!“
“Super cool place to just visit and poke around. A lot of the old mill equipment is still there, as part of the decor, and they've turned it into a neat meeting space for small as well as large groups. We met one of the proprietors, and she was a fun and enthusiastic source of info. Plenty of kitschy fun items to buy as well as a nice menu. A cool place to visit; we'll be back.“
“Such a well kept secret, and a hidden gem!!Cozy tasting room with unique and exciting wines that also has sweeping views! Host was friendly and knowledgeable as well as accommodating. My kids loved exploring the surroundings while we tasted. Only place I've ever enjoyed wine while looking at Mt. Hood.The Gris is amazing!“

“Fabulous Italian wines. Our absolute favorite winery. We used to live in Napa and belonged to 13 wineries at one time. We are a bit picky about the style of wine we enjoy. Cascade Cliffs is fabulous. Pierre has been terrific when we have visited. Explains every detail without talking down and his suggestions have always been spot on.“
“I am really loving to explore this are of Washington. Cor cellars has become a must stop for me. I love the architecture. Modern and elegant. The staff is friendly. They play good music. The wine is also delicious. I usually get the cheese and crackers as well“
“Small, intimate family run winery with wonderful and affordable wines. Julie was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly but never intrusive. Located right on 2nd Street in The Dalles, it's a great place to stop if you're wandering the various tasting rooms and bare pubs in the area. Since it was my first time here, I did the flight. The first wine, the Locomotive, had me with the very light taste with hints of honey and papaya. Not one to typically drink whites, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. On a warm or even hot day, this would be perfect. As I made my way through the tasting, I found that I was enjoying several of their wines. The High Tension, their club favorite, was a full bodied blend of Syrah, Merlot and Barbera. A perfect everyday drinking wine And good for parties where you need a wine that pleases many palettes.The other standout for me was the Barbera. Very smooth, full body and slightly jammy. Since I'm in a Barbera club at Cascade Cliffs, I left with the Locomotive. I'm looking forward to a warm spring day to sit in my deck and enjoy with friends. The tasting room inside is small and simple. A picnic tables and seats out in the paved area out front, nice on a sunny day. I'll definitely be back.“
