“We had a wonderful tasting experience at Saffron, thanks to our host, Adam. He was the right amount of everything: attentive, funny, informative and so accommodating. Our wine purchase was mixed up and Adam went out of his way to make it right. That’s the kind of customer satisfaction that is so hard to find!
We will definitely be back and bring friends!!“

“If you’re looking for that down home feel, Scoggins Creek Coffee won’t disappoint…They have the most delicious beverages and the staff is amazing!!!🥰 Best Mom and Pop shop around! I highly recommended stopping by if you ever find yourself rolling through Gaston or Yamhill.“
“The wine tasting experience here was incredible. The staff were so friendly! They offer a nice range of red and white wines. I bought a few bottles and can’t wait to try more. I also recommend getting the cheese board - it was a nice touch throughout the tasting experience!“
“One of the most beautiful winery properties we’ve ever visited! We loved it so much we went back the next day. The service is amazing, the wine is delicious, and the views are picturesque! This is a must visit if you’re in the valley or looking for a new winery experience.“
“We had a great second time. The first time we visited, my sister and brother in law were visiting from Germany, the place is gorgeous, great pictures all around.
During this visit only wife and I came, it was a BDay celebration, they treated us wonderfully. One of the guys speaks Russian, I think that's a great asset to have around, and then, more guests you may have.
Thank you all for your candid assistance, well see you back sometime soon.“
“Great staff, great food, great atmosphere. GLUTEN FREE DELICIOUSNESS“
“This is by far one of the best wineries I’ve been to in Oregon! The views of Mt. Hood are absolutely stunning, and the overall atmosphere is immaculate. The owners are incredibly welcoming and made the whole experience even more enjoyable for me and my friends. Plus, they have the cutest dog! The wine and food were both fantastic, especially the Bulls Blend! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great wine-tasting experience in Oregon with friends or family.“
“We brought in friends from out of town and from the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed. The vineyard is stunning and the wines were expertly crafted, the genuine care and passion that goes into each bottle is evident. Highly recommend!“
“What an amazing recommendation from NW Wine Shuttle and Kim. We squeezed them in and it ended up being my favorite part of the day! Spending time with Russell and the heart and story of Flaneur gave me a little bit of Paris married with delicious wine of the Willamette Valley. I cannot wait to return for food pairing and getting the most our of my new membership and reason to head to quaint Carlton from Portland as much as I can and recommending others as well as clients. What a great stop, don't miss it.“
“We had a great experience tasting some excellent wines recently at Knudsen. Our host was awesome, sharing his deep wine knowledge and enthusiasm! We were lucky enough to meet the owner, Paige, who is absolutely wonderful. If you want to sample some great wines in a relaxing and welcoming environment, Knudsen will not disappoint.“
“My husband and I were celebrating our Anniversary and went to five wineries in the area. There is a lot of good wine in the area but our best experience was at Winter’s Hill. Matt met us with a sparkling Pinot Gris. Oregon does their sparking wines well. Winter’s Hill had great Pinot Noir and wonderful white wines too. We joined the wine club and are excited for our wine shipments. The customer service is outstanding. Visit - you will not be disappointed.“
“We came on a warm Friday in July and sat we felt very comfortable eating our picnic outside under umbrellas. Josie was professionally friendly, serving excellent selection of wines for our tastings. One of our party was a wine buyer and loved chatting with her. We can tell Josie loves what she does! Thank you, Lemelson for a wonderful time!“

“I’m so happy to have a reasonably priced Italian food restaurant in McMinnville!! The food was amazing. To good to get pictures before we started eating it. My family and I got the steak bites, cheese bread, mushroom raviolis and a pepperoni pizza. They were all amazing and the service was great as well.“
“Love the scenery, the vineyards, setting, the choice in wines, friendly knowledgeable staff, and they are so friendly to my pug dog, Pancake!! Always take a different bottle home!!“
“Stopped in for a tasting and ended up spending way more time than expected! If you’re a Pinot noir fan this is THE place - loved the wine and chatting with everyone there. Offered some great local recs and history/ stories of the area. Highly recommend as a first stop to get a lay of the land!“
“Went to the recent event at the winery, it was great! Good wine, and the staff was marvelous as always. The food was good, enjoyed it. But it was-is not appropriate for wine tasting. I do not understand the current trend of wineries inviting mexican food carts to wine tasting events. The food style tends to mess up ones palete. Beer or soda go great with Mexican food. Or possibly a huge red, but not the refined Pinot Noir and whites of the Willamette Valley.“
“Great beers and chill vibes abound at this surprising brewery nestled amongst the vineyards. During our first visit, Paige and Michelle hosted an experience so welcoming we felt right at home. Beers range from notes of light crisp summer citrus to hearty malts that will warm your soul. The tap list has a broad range without being overwhelming or repetitive.
The back patio has lots of space for groups and fun activities to pass some time. Would absolutely recommend ?“
“Celebrated an anniversary here with a tasting and enjoying the views and it was amazing! Our host Maddie was especially helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. Made the experience a 12/10! Would highly recommend coming to this beautiful vineyard and asking for Maddie! Will definitely come again :)“
“I love it here! not only is the vibe relaxed and welcoming. The employees are really keen on giving you suggestions of what to try and have even learned my plate l palate to help me broaden what type I beers I enjoy based on what I've experienced in the past. Becky and Alyssa are really well versed in the differences of the styles and regional flavors. love coming in here for a point or two or even to grab things for home. the varietals are unmatched.“
“As always we had a great time sampling some fantastic whiskeys, yummy snacks, AND we got a couple of “fly bys” from the Thunderbirds during our stay this afternoon! (Thanks, McMinnville Air Show!) The owners and staff at BP are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. And the whiskey is really good! We’re been several times and will continue to return! Thanks BP for another amazing experience!! Y’all rock!! 😉❤️“
“Very laid back with old school pricing. Love their whites and Rose. They’re sold out of Sauvignon Blanc. Great deal and atmosphere although just off the highway.“
“Incredible hidden winery. We went here on a whim and we are so happy we did. The view is beautiful. The service was terrific. The wines were delicious. I highly recommend making the trip here. I can’t wait to return and to share it with others.“
“Wine was very good. I think what set them apart was their Rose, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir were all worth purchasing, and we did. Seems rare for a winery to excel across multiple categories.
My only complaint is the tasting fee is expensive given you need to purchase $70 or $75 worth of product to waive just one tasting. For $35 you’re better off ordering 3-4 glasses at table for your party. The tasting pours are tiny…an ounce or less. Truly, just a taste. Go to catch the view and enjoy a glass of wine…they’re all delicious and worth the price. Don’t waste money on the tasting.“
“Wines that are a good mix of displaying typical Oregon pinot fruit, but with enough restraint to let the complexity shine through.“

“The food is amazing and they have an extensive menu. The staff is super friendly, funny and helpful. Absolutely worth the stop!“
“We were able to walk in for a tasting on the patio yesterday. Emma led us through a wonderful tasting that she personalized to our tastes. The staff are knowledgeable and the scenery is beautiful. The wines are expensive but high quality. One of our very favorite tasting experiences in Oregon.“
“Good variety of wines with a wine maker that has great passion for his work.“
“Cellar Door Wine Tours took us to Tendril Wine Cellars first on our 3-winery tour and warned us we'd like it best. We truly did. Each wine was delicious. I'm an Oregon pinot noir fan and they make great ones, but also loved their white pinot noir and rose. Tasting manager Andrew was delightful and kept us both informed and laughing! The tasting room is very small, but they also have outside picnic tables for warmer months. Make an appointment and enjoy! I signed up for the wine club as I enjoyed every sip.“
“Incredible experience. Had the place to ourselves on a Thursday afternoon. Ray the manager of Craft guided us through the tasting and even gave us some extra wines to try as well. He was charming and gregarious and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If your in North Willamette you need to go to Craft, a definite must stop in Carlton“

“Our visit to Laurel Ridge Winery was one of the most memorable experiences of our Oregon wine trip. Set on a beautiful 240-acre estate in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, this second-generation, family-owned winery embodies everything that makes Oregon wine country special — authenticity, passion, and a deep respect for the land.
We were greeted warmly by Kira Teppola, who now carries on the legacy started by her father, founder David Teppola. From the moment she began sharing her family’s story — from her father’s early fascination with French wine to his pioneering belief in the Willakenzie Loam soils — we were captivated. Kira’s knowledge of the land, the vines, and the winemaking process was extraordinary. Her enthusiasm was contagious; we hung on every word and felt truly connected to the spirit of Laurel Ridge. Even the family vineyard dog, who was initially a bit cautious, became our friend by the end of the visit!
The wines were exceptional. My favorite was the 2017 Barrel Select Pinot Noir, beautifully balanced and expressive of the terroir. We enjoyed it so much we opened a bottle that very night. The next day, I couldn’t stop thinking about the bright, refreshing 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, so we went back just to buy more! Kira graciously set us up with a picnic table outside under a heat lamp so we could enjoy lunch overlooking the estate — and even poured us a little more wine “so we wouldn’t get thirsty.”
It’s rare to find a place that feels this genuine — where every glass tells a story, and every detail reflects generations of care. Laurel Ridge isn’t just a winery; it’s a living family legacy built on passion, perseverance, and love for the land.
If you’re exploring the Willamette Valley, don’t miss this place. Come for the wine, stay for the warmth of the people. We’ll be back again and again.“
“Ken Wright in Carlton, Oregon is a beautiful place for a delicious Pinot tasting. The tasting room is fabulous and the outside patio even better. Great wines, great staff ( I wish I had written down the gal’s name that hosted us) as she was knowledgeable, understood our palate and offered additional wines she thought we would like plus she was so fun. She also showed us the 1/2 Bottles we purchased for our at home wine tasting that evening. And of course we purchased other bottles. I recommend booking or stopping in Ken Wright Cellers.“

“I had my first visit just this last week and I was really happy to see what a great, healthy and delicious menu it has! 100% rating on all flavors! Chicken kebab, Moroccan mint tea, Mezza sampler and the chicory salad all have high quality ingredients. The value of that for me is why I can enjoy dining out these days. Not just a menu of burgers and fries or tacos that are easy to make at home. I will keep Cypress on my top list of local restaurants worth returning too! The service level of quality management is very enjoyable.“
“I live in the San Francisco area Bay Area and wanted to spend my 65th birthday celebration in the Willamette Valley.
An amazing decision, furtherly THE BEST DECISION when having picked Youngberg Hill Inn & Winery as our home base.
Because we were there at low season, we got many chances to interact with owner Nicoletta, a most wonderful and captivating hostess.
Everything in our stay at Youngberg Hill Inn & Winery was A+++! And their wine tasting too, WOW!
My 65th birthday celebration was the best it could have been.
Thanks, Nicoletta. We can’t to come back again!“

“Beautiful winery with an outdoor patio overlooking the vineyards and mountains. There were many French wines from their sister vineyard on the tasting we had. Some
of the Pinots were fuller bodied than I am used to, but still delicious. I loved the atmosphere and enjoyed the tasting!“

“We met our Son from out of town for lunch. I had a gift card and we've been wanting to go there. Everyone was so friendly it felt like it wasn't our first time being there. The service was excellent and the food was so good and the portions were ample. We will definitely be dining there again.
Parking: We parked in the lot behind the restaurant as street parking was full.“

“Berts chuckwagon is some of the better barbecue we have around here. Trouble is in the northwest we just don’t have a lot of barbecue. I feel like the sides are what really shine. His ribs are good. They do it smoked style but they are pretty tough and dry and that’s what happens when you smoke ribs. Mine are like 10 times better in the oven and so juicy they fall off the bone. He’s a nice guy and the prices are moderate for what they offer portions are pretty generous. I’ve eaten here multiple times when I didn’t feel like cooking. Will probably come back again. But I do prefer to make my own barbecue over berts.“
“Really good wines and incredibly knowledgeable staff in an intriguing tasting house and deck with Asian flair. The wines are incredible here. Experience felt both luxurious and down to earth. One of our top places on a week-long wine tasting trip. Will definitely go again!“

“Must start with full disclosure--my wife, Sunshine and I have never been there--BUT, having just completed an AMA waterways wine cruise in France we met wonderful people from Stoller, including Gary Mortensen who presented wine tasting of their excellent wines and enthusiastic, humorous lectures. We sampled many great French wines on this cruise, but none topped the Stoller chardonnays we tasted. The Stoller Family Estate is definitely on our "bucket list". We also met Bill Stoller's lovely sister, Nancy. We tasted a wine Bill named after her and it was to die for! Thanks Stoller for sending your lively group on our cruise. I'm sure when we finally visit, you'll earn this five star rating! Say hi to Gary and Nancy for us.“

My husband loved his fish and chips, perfectly cooked and plentiful fries. Server quick to take our order. Can't wait to return.“

“Such a great wine tour and tasting! We had Eric as our guide and he was a wealth of knowledge (as well as a great photographer for group shots).They were very accommodating when we ran into some transportation issues too. The winery has such a cool history and amazing views! This is a must do when visiting the area!“
