“Amazing Farm Store!!! Greeting was very welcoming! The gal working gave me all the information about all the different meats and other varieties of products. I am now a new customer! I’m so happy I found you, my belly is thanking me . ?“

“What a wonderful secret gem. First time visitor. We found this winery actually through Groupon. In the summer of 2023 they are running a great wine and cheese flight pairing package. It included a large cheese and charcuterie board with two wine tastings. Our hostess Sharron was very nice. She provided information about the wines, the winery, and her journey from California up to Oregon. They have breathtaking views of the surrounding area and also patio seating. We kept cool inside where the ambiance was cozy and inviting. Lots of really nice Italian inspired tapestries and fun grape decor. It felt like we were family by the time we left. Very laid back atmosphere and friendly people. I would definitely come back again. It was a wonderful time and a beautiful day. The roses and outside cat also delighted our senses. Magical memories. Highly recommend.“

“I'm a new club member because we really like the wines, the view and tasting room are beautiful, they allow outside food, they allow dogs, and it's close to home. However, when we brought out-of-town guests recently, we all were appalled at the lack of service. There were only two other small parties tasting, and our server unceremoniously deposited the tasting notes and carafes on our table, told us to "taste clockwise from the white," and never spoke to us again. We had to listen as he explained the wines to another table; we felt like chopped liver. There wasn't even any thoughtful communication when I paid for our purchases. I wonder if all club members are treated this way. . .“

“I have been going to Gran Moraine regularly since a friend introduced me to this winery 4 years ago and recently became a wine club member. The wines here are unlike anything else I've had from the Willamette Valley. They are full of nuance and are far and away my favorite wines from the area. I have introduced numerous friends to this spot and every time, my guests are so impressed with not only the quality of the wines, but the professionalism of the staff. The service here is always impeccable and Tim is the absolute best! His brain is overflowing with wine knowledge and he will happily share any information with you about what he knows. I learn something new every visit. The views here are lovely, and the seating area inside is cozy and beautiful. The patio on the back is one of my favorite places to sit when the weather is nice because you can hear the winemakers hard at work and you can jam to whatever their daily playlist. If you haven't been here yet, you are absolutely missing out. Their huge selection of pinots are wonderful, as are their other varietals, and the Zena Crown line is not to be missed. Do yourself or any friends visiting you in Portland a favor, and book yourself a tasting here. You won't regret it.“

“What a treat a beautiful if not warm day enjoying the tasting of several really delicious wines and select foods to compliment. The outdoor setting is lovely with nicely designed and Landscaped surroundings looking out on the surrounding vineyards. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. Simply a very pleasant day“

“My friend and I went here in February for the Valentine’s Wonderer card. Upon arriving, the building is lovely, and when you enter the fabulous energy that seeps into your being makes you feel so good and happy. I've never experienced that before. They have seating inside as well as seating on the balcony outside. The gentleman that seated us (outside, as it was a gorgeous sunny day) was just fabulous! The view was spectacular! Trees framing the view of a snow-covered Mt Hood and the vineyard below (of course, the vines were bare, but I'm sure come sping/summer that will just add to this gorgeous view).We started with the Chardonay, which was light with a hint of butteriness and a crisp after taste. It was very good. The next was their Pinot Gris, and let me just say it's sunshine in a bottle! The next 3 tastes were Pinot Noirs, and I admit I'm not one that goes for Pinot Noirs. Boy, did they prove me wrong! I love all 3. The first one was light, mildly fruity, with a hint of sweetness to finish (this was my favorite). This one came from their vines. The second one was sorced from Washington grapes, the taste was bolder, more of the traditional Pinot Noir flavors, but very good. The last was the most bold and was absolutely delightful! The cost is justified, but I'm on a very limited budget. The last was the Cabernet Sauvignon, and though again I'm not big on Sauvignons, it was one of the best I've had!I came home with the Pinot Gris and the 1st Pinot Noir. Yum!!! My friend and I agree we will be visiting this winery a lot! I highly recommend them! Cheers!“

“We loved our stay at Youngberg Hill. The innkeepers, the wine, the view… all was superb! Spacious rooms with luxury touches and a daily room refresh. We felt pampered and incredibly lucky to enjoy the views from our room every single moment. We even stayed in one night a brought some snacks because being at the Inn was so relaxing and quiet. The staff was available, yet we had plenty of privacy. A perfect stay.“

“This experience was beyond any expectation we could have had. The entire team was professional, informative, warm and completely outdid themselves in every single aspect. The wines were absolutely stunning, the Chardonnay all of the Pinots were unique from one another and very complex. The bonus pour of the Merlot was just the cherry on top. We were beaming. Tim, Braxton and the entire hospitality, office and winemaking team are wonderful! I can't wait to go back and share this experience with those we love!“

“Imagine strolling in, saying you have a reservation under your name, and then one of the team members going “oh my gosh, you’re Darcy!” And running to grab a bottle of champagne (that our friend had coordinated in advance). It started our visit here on such a fun note, and that level of excitement and charm sustained our entire visit. This is a special place. The home is set up so everyone does their wine tasting very privately. The team members are so thoughtful and enthusiastic in how they present the wine, and the wine itself is amazing. I love the imagination series!! We will always come back here and recommend!“

“What a beautiful tasting room and delicious wine! This was a refreshing experience after visiting some more expensive and upscale wineries in Willamette Valley--of which there are many--but don't think Ghost Hill has inferior wine. We were blown away by the rich, vibrant pinots served to us during out tasting. Cam was a wonderful host and explained flavors and varietals in ways I had never heard before. Definitely worth including in your Willamette wine adventures!“

“This winery makes the best Pinot in Oregon. Absolutely incredibly smooth and all is estate grown. They’re next door to Domaine Serene. My wife and I visited in August and became wine club members. If you’re touring the Dundee Hills this is a “must visit” winery. You can’t get their wine anywhere, except the winery. Family owned and genuinely great people.“

“We actually didn't eat here but the wines...wow, they are incredible! Some of our favorite pinot noirs right now and they're on 2021's so have lots of room for aging. Highly recommend them for this as well as their service and knowledgable staff!“

“I had a great time visiting Patricia Green for a tasting with my family. The service was excellent. The tour guide was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. I would happily recommend this place to anyone visiting. The wine was exceptional. I purchased some of their wine and served it over Thanksgiving. Everyone absolutely loved it. We are looking forward to returning!“

“Our family visited today De Ponte Cellars. 04.07.24 Amazing views and lovely Pinot Noir! We didn't have any appointments, and they were able to accommodate the 7 of us. The highlight of our visit was 2021, 2015, and 2018 (Estate) Dundee Hill Pinot Noir. Pet-friendly and friendly staff. These fantastic bottles are traveling to Puerto Rico and Utah.“

“A Gem in Carlton: Flaneur WineryFrom the moment you step into Flaneur Winery's tasting room in Carlton, Oregon, you're not just entering a winery; you're embarking on a multifaceted wine experience that transcends the ordinary. As a wine club member for over a year, I've had the pleasure of witnessing first-hand the unique offerings that set Flaneur apart in the rich tapestry of Willamette Valley's wine scene.Flaneur doesn't just serve wine; they curate experiences. From the carefully crafted wine maker's dinners that showcase the versatility and depth of their vintages, to the engaging and unexpected events like Taro Card readings, there's always something new and exciting to look forward to. These gatherings are not just about wine; they're about building community, sharing stories, and creating unforgettable moments.The heart and soul of Flaneur, however, is its people. The staff's passion for wine and genuine hospitality is palpable, with Mindy herself leading by example. Always positive and upbeat, Mindy ensures every visit is memorable, even during the quieter seasons when the valley slows down. This level of personal touch and warmth makes Flaneur not just a winery, but a home away from home for wine lovers.The wines themselves are exceptional, embodying the richness and diversity of Oregon's terroir. Each bottle tells a story of meticulous craftsmanship and a deep respect for nature, qualities that resonate deeply with those who appreciate fine wine. It's this unwavering commitment to quality that makes Flaneur not only one of my top-rated wineries but also a frequent recommendation to my clients.In conclusion, Flaneur Winery is more than just a destination; it's an experience, a community, and a testament to the beauty of Oregon wine. Whether you're a seasoned oenophile or new to the world of wine, Flaneur welcomes you with open arms and a glass ready to be filled with something truly special. I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to anyone seeking to explore the best that Willamette Valley has to offer.Daniel Hyde“

“This would have been unthinkable a generation ago, but the proof is in the liquid?: Oregon, and the Willamette Valley?️ in particular, have become sources of some of the most exciting, exacting, and terroir-specific? wines in the world.Yet Oregon is home to so much more than just epic Pinot Noir; from white wines crafted from Riesling?, Pinot Gris, and beyond, to sparklers of serious accomplishment, Oregon has evolved into an unlikely superstar in the world of wine.This Chardonnay? is a true expression of the Willamette Valley?“

“Such a lovely and kind staff! Wine has always been great too with a variety of winemakers and options which I enjoy very much. You can bring snacks or they have a vending machine you can buy charcuterie items from too. No reservations needed.“

“Love Rebecca at MonksGate! This winery is so gorgeous (talk about having Instagram moments!) The vineyard is LIVE Certified (so chemical free and sustainable.) Their dog, Fizzy, runs around greeting guests and the wines are delicious. Highly recommend hanging out- especially on a sunny day when you can enjoy their multiple outdoor seating areas. (Yes, they have indoor and a covered area with fire pits, too.)“

“What an awesome winery!Shane assisted me with my reservation & he was great; he was super friendly & knowledgable & truly a delight to chat with.The winery is beautiful & the tasting room is comfortable & the tables have lovely views of the vineyard.We tried the Bubbly Tasting, Standard Tasting, Reserve Tasting & Provisional Board & were delighted with everything.The Pinot Noirs were incredible & we purchased a bottle of the Roosevelt.The staff were friendly, very welcoming & knowledgable, the hospitality was incredible & the staff made us feel like they were really happy to have us there:)Our server, Cole, was fantastic!He kept us on schedule as he knew we were visiting another winery.He provided lots of interesting info & facts about the winery & served us at the perfect pace.The other staff were great too, they were more than happy to help with directions & recommendations.Our visit was on a rainy day in the middle of Winter & the winery was still beautiful.The vibe is relaxed & friendly with great wines.They are also dog friendly (patio) & the staff were very sweet with my pup.I would highly recommend this winery.Do yourself a favor & visit this little gem, you’ll be glad you did:)Keep up the great work Elk Cove!“

“Amazing vineyard! We ended up doing the atv tour and had Paul as our tour guide who was very knowledgeable about the process and the history of the farm. The farm was beautiful and the wines were amazing. We ended shipping a bunch of wines and olive oils back to us.“

“We were delighted to have been taken in without any reservations and it was quite busy. Their wines were delicious and the views was spectacular. We wanted to do wine tasting in the actual vineyard rather than a tasting room in town and this was the spot.“

“My mom and I stopped in here last Sunday to check out their selection and we were so impressed! The customer service was incredible and we had such a wonderful time tasting their selection of wines! We plan to return and enjoyed ourselves so much learning about the different soils!“

“My second visit. The staff is always super welcoming and helpful. And of course, a great product: all of the pinots are distinctive with the Victoria taking the prize in my view. Love their chard as well. Maybe the most picturesque spot in Williamette?“

“Had a delightful experience with our tasting reservation and enjoyed the tour provided by Sebastian, one of the resident felines. We appreciated how Sokol Blosser's tasting room is set up so that most tables have a view to the well landscaped area around the building and don't leave you feeling like you're sitting on top of other patrons. While walking around outside and checking out the landscaping, I could see the plants chosen would provide a nice display as often as nature allows during the different seasons.“

“Always the nicest people! We've been going here for over 25 years. Haven't been in years due to a health issue with my husband. We visited today with some friends and it's like going home. The nicest family. Good wine. Great atmosphere. It's like we never left“

“Small, friendly, delicious, wonderful little patio that overlooks a vineyard with fireside warmth - the hosts were welcoming and it was a very personal and friendly experience- we prefer the family friendly atmosphere over the big corporate drive-up buses experience. We did white - had the Pinot Gris and Chardonnay- dry, not oaky , vibrant. We really enjoyed our visit. And we will come back.“

“This small boutique winery should be on your list when visiting Dundee Hills AVA.They serve only Pinot Noir. (Be prepared for the cost). With that being said, it is worth the price. They serve an espresso after your fabulous tasting, which is a bonus.“

“A true gem with some of the best wine you will find in the area.Scott and Denise have incredible hospitality and their farm and vineyard is an experience you will cherish and not forget.While we were there, Scott helped a baby goose hatch. True farming, true science, and incredible wine.“

“We recently visited Black Dog Winery and were blown away by the beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces they created. The views are perfect, and there's plenty of seating to relax and enjoy a glass of wine both indoor and by the outdoor fire pits. It's super family and dog friendly -- we had a big group of 10 people with kids and babies and they welcomed us all in - it was perfect!Steve, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Overall, I highly recommend Black Dog Winery for anyone looking for a fun and relaxed day out with family or friends. The combination of great wine, beautiful surroundings, and friendly staff make for an unbeatable experience.“

“What a hidden gem! Very unassuming location - yet, once inside, you knew you were in for a treat. Understated boutique winery with a super knowledgeable server. Really smart way to present the tastings so you can appreciate the different vintages back to back. Delicious Pinot in a valley full of Pinot. Looking forward to our next visit!!“

“I was a fan of Knudsen Vineyards' grapes long before we dropped in at their tasting room and subsequently became club members. They have traditionally provided grapes to Argyle Winery for use in their top-rated sparkling wines, and many a KnudsenVinyard Brut from Argyle has added brillince to New Years Eve and other festive occasions.Then we stopped in at the hilltop tasting room and learned about their OWN wines. They make some luscious Pinot Noirs from the surrounding hillsides, including some from vines planted in the '70s and always with a note about the clonal varieties used in each bottling, such as the clones used, the types and length of barrel aging, and the history of the vineyards from which the grapes were sourced.As a fun observation: if you've seen the Oregon Wine Country license plates with a rolling hill covered in vines, that's taken from a painting of one of the Knudsen plantings. They were one of the first vineyards to the Willamette Valley and their history is notable.We never fail to attend their Club Member Appreciation days, and have just returned from one last Saturday. Complimentary tastings and a light cheese board with snacks to highlight the food pairing potential of their wine are a lovely touch.They also do celebrations throughout the year, sometimes with live music and a variety of appetizers. It's a good club to belong to, and we love taking home a selection of the wines we've tasted there.Short version: A great tasting room, luscious wines with long Oregon history, and a great set of perks for club members.“

“Our favorite tasting room of those we have tried in McMinnville! Shantel is fantastic, knows a lot about the wines and so down to earth. The wine speaks for itself. We loved the reds, especially the Sadie blend and the Cab Franc. This is a must try place on 3rd!“

“Womens Trip to Carlton, Oregon. Marshall Davis Tasting Room had exceptional service, wines were delicious, both whites & reds, dry & semi sweet. We were able to get an aps plate from an adjoining restaurant. Will definitely go back. Thank you, Ryan!“

“We were members years ago but left due to a move. We visited recently since moving back and Michael took care of us. there was no question that we were joining their wine club again; his approach of their wine was unpretentious and described with love and care. Cana’s Feast produces an honest product, it’s employees make you feel welcome and they want to talk about their product.We really missed the club member pickup events and are now looking forward to experiencing their new seated meal style wine pickup.This is an Oregon winery that is unforgettable and not to miss.“
