“Despite my years in France—living in the Bordeaux region, roaming Burgundy and Champagne—I’m always drawn back to Potter’s Vineyard for the bold, the rich, the beautiful new French Oak, and above all, their one-of-a-kind Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. Bill and Sandy are true masters of their craft.

“Mary and Brandon were amazing! Wine was fantastic and the views were spectacular!“
“Great wine, fermented in their handmade amphoras.“
“Wonderful setting, delightful and friendly staff Quality wine. Really enjoyed the Special Salmon Bake.“
“What a wonderful place! I've been here twice now. We went on a Sunday and enjoyed some really great live music and we held a private event (wedding rehearsal dinner) here. The staff was fantastic to work with. The setting is amazing - the courtyard is dreamy. You feel like you're on vacation in this quaint little vineyard halfway around the globe. It's so relaxing to go sit down by the lake and watch a little wildlife. There's plenty of space for close parking. They periodically have food vendors, there was a crepe guy there the day we went with the live music, very good! We'll definitely be back. *Photo is from our private event. Unfortunately I didn't take a photo of the whole room.“
“The service, venue, and wine were all fantastic! We will definitely be back!“
“We visited Archer several years ago. Their wine is some of the best!! I placed an order in November 2024 but hadn’t received any replies or my order. Phone calls were not answered. Finally today 8 Jan 2025 I made contact with Trevor. Ownership has recently changed hands. He is backlogged but getting the orders slowly out!!! I’ll be looking forward to seeing my bottles arrive!!!“
“There is a nice selection of tasty wines that will not break the bank, and the wine club is off the hook! The tasting room is bright and welcoming, as is the tasting room team. It’s worth the trip any Friday, Saturday or Sunday.“
“Dropped for a "quick" tasting when we were looking a home in the area. Now we really want to buy a home in Aurora! Friendly folks and excellent wine. Love all the history too. Looking forward to returning with friends to relax with food and wine on the patio.“
“Stunning wedding venue! Photographing weddings here is such a blast and working with the staff is always easy going. I loved the wedding party getting ready areas! So roomy and aesthetic.“
“After being at an unbelievable hidden gem, pulling up to this one made us question whether we should stay. We arrived at a vast property and feared that we were at a big commercial winery, the last thing we wanted to cap off our trip! I almost chose to only have a glass of wine rather than a flight because I had a feeling that it was nothing special. Usually my gut is right, but as I spoke to Jessica, without any pressure at all, I felt like I needed to do a tasting and I'm sooo glad that I did! Wow wow wow! Never judge a book by its cover! While a very impressive winery, they surprisingly don't do any distribution meaning you can only buy the wine there or through their website. This is a phenomenal spot. A must! And oh my goodness the view is like no other! If you're heading back towards Portland, this is the perfect last spot to schedule on your way out. You'll be sure to end your trip on a high note! Oh, and they also have spectacular food!!! This was a spot where I surprisingly loved one of these stainless steel chardonnays!“
“Fabulous wines and incredible tasting venue. Such a lovely place to relax and drink wine! One of the loveliest hidden gems I’ve discovered here!“
“Love acidity!!!! Simply the best wine!!!“
“Great staff and quality wines plus one of the best views of all of the mountain peaks in the state.“
“Just attended another wonderful wine event here, and was reminded of just how pleasant and wonderful a host Andrés Martinez is. Though it has been 2 pandemic years since being here, walking through the doors again was a warm and welcoming experience.As is appropriate, OWR now has a waiting list to become a member and it is only well deserved success. Here is to Andrés and OWR much continued success.“
“Great wines from a local Oregon winery. Excellent prices and knowledgeable wine guy (Dan) thanks, we’ll be back“
“This hidden gem in the Willamette Valley is well worth a stop. Tom is great, very knowledgeable about his wines, and truly loves what he does. I really appreciated his comments on what food each wine would pair with. If you appreciate the wine in the bottle more than the price tag on the outside, you will find some lovely selections here. We will be back!“
“Though this winery is off the beaten path, you can find it if you simply follow the directions on their website, and you will be rewarded with excellent wine, excellent view, and excellent service. The sister of the winemaker was pouring our tastes, and was a wealth of information about their wines and the area in general. We are glad we made the extra effort to visit them, and I would definitely recommend a visit to this winery to taste their great wines.“
