    A perfect afternoon
    Melanie S.

    Off the beaten path, but well worth the trek! Don't sleep on this vineyard. While I loved BDV's OR pinots, the petit verdot blew me away! I had to take a bottle back with me, along with a bottle of their white pinot noir. Ex-professor Steve kept the wines flowing and answered all my pressing wine questions in such a way that others haven't been able to do in the past. It was a perfectly peaceful afternoon with views of the vineyard relaxing in those Adirondack chairs, catching up with good friends. This girl couldn't ask for much more...can't wait to return!

    gorgeous location, Joel is a fantastic host, loved their sangria and white noir wine perfect place for wine tasting on a lovely day

    Great service and fun atmosphere - right in the vineyards! We enjoyed our afternoon tasting!

    Yummy charcuterie platter.

    Absolutely delightful! Good food. Delicious wine. Great service. Wonderful ambience. Highly recommend. Indoor and outdoor spaces. Pups welcome.

    So much fun to visit this place!

    We had such a fantastic time tasting with Joel -- he really made the experience for us. Fun, knowledgeable and very enthusiastic brand ambassador for Black Dog. He walked us through a nice variety of wines based on what we told him we were interested in, and he kept us laughing the whole time. Highly recommend a trip out here!

    Beautiful newer tasting room with indoor and outdoor seating. Knowledgable hostess provided a wonderful summary of each tasting.

    A bit of a drive up a gravel road, but a beautiful new tasting room was worth the drive. Loved the outdoor fire pit and upper deck (though it was a bit too chilly for us to stay long up there- will be amazing in summer months). Lots of variety of wines beyond the usual Pinot Noir of this area - and, they had 3 beers to choose from so my husband was happy too! The gal behind the bar was super friendly and played great music too :)

The person serving us asked if we wanted to buy a bottle, and we said yes, but then he would pour us tiny portions and take the bottle away. He then asked if we wanted to try something else after the first pour. This further confused us since we thought we bought the bottle. But we the assumed we must not have if we was asking if we wanted to try something else. So he brought out an another bottle and did the same thing. Small pour and walked away with the bottle. We were late for another tasting so asked to check out. We noticed we were charged for the two full bottles but we never finished them. Then got a text later from the winery saying they forgot to send us home with the rest of the wine we had purchased. So turns out we had bought the two bottles but were never served the whole bottles. We said we were flying home and unable to get them and asked for a partial refund. They refused. Safe to say this one of the most bizarre experiences we've had at a winery. The customer service was lackluster. I saw other reviews about them being pretentious and I would have to agree. We will never return to this winery, will no longer purchase their wine in stores, and will actively advise friends to do the same.

    We enjoyed our time at MonksGate Vineyard in Yamhill County, outside of Carlton. This was one of…read moreour stops on a custom wine tour in Willamette Valley, a.k.a. Oregon Wine Country. What stood out to me about MonksGate, compared to the other wineries and vineyards we visited, was the wonderful view we had during our wine tasting. We were outside, perched atop a mound, underneath trees, with a picnic table, umbrella, Adirondack chairs, and a side/end table, looking out onto seemingly endless vineyards. The weather was perfect and the atmosphere was calm and serene. We also pretty much had the whole place to ourselves except for one couple with a dog. Speaking of which, MonksGate is dog-friendly. As soon as we parked and got out of the car, we were greeted by the MonksGate owner's dog, Fizzy. Fizzy is a well-behaved and well-groomed Airedale Terrier. Fizzy and the other customers' small dog, Jimmy, hung out with us during our tasting. It added to our experience. This is a family-owned-and-operated vineyard. Along with Fizzy, we were greeted by Rebecca Moore, second-generation vineyard owner. In 1998, Rebecca's parents, Ron and Linda Moore, founded the 50-acre farmland where MonksGate sits today. The vineyard itself is 20 acres. It was named "MonksGate" because monks from the nearby Trappist Abbey (Our Lady of Guadalupe) walked across the land as a form of meditation. The Moores installed an access gate to allow the monks to continue their walks. Rebecca conducted the tasting. She had an assistant with her. They were both very friendly and welcoming. Below is a list of what we had with prices per bottle at the time of our visit. * 2023 North Block Dry Rose ($28) * 2019 Classic Pinot Noir ($42) * 2021 Classic Pinot Noir ($42) * 2023 Dry Riesling ($29) * 2023 "Fizzy" Sparkling Dry Riesling ($39) There was a tasting menu with helpful tasting notes. Also, Rebecca did a great job explaining each wine as she served them. I'm not a wine connoisseur so all I can tell you is I thought all five wines tasted fantastic. I'd be happy with any one of them at dinner or a social gathering, etc. My favorite was the 2019 pinot noir. How the notes described that one: "2019 was a cooler, more 'traditional' vintage, with rain during harvest keeping flavor phenolics bright and notes on the nose floral and spicy. The palate of this wine is rife with ripe raspberries, the finish long and balanced." By the time you read this, they'll probably be sold out. We had a Saturday 3pm reservation for a group of eight. The total cost of the tasting was $252.20, which worked out to $31.53 per person. We left the vineyard shortly before 4:30pm, so we stayed just under 1.5 hours. When we left, Rebecca and her assistant started to close up shop -- we were the last customers for the day. I will say, for as nice a property as this is, I thought it was a little weird how the restroom - at least the one we used - was an outdoor porta-potty. I've done a lot of wine tastings over the years and this was the first vineyard/winery to have a porta-potty as the restroom. Not a big deal for us, but just thought I'd point it out.

    What a nice place to go for wine! We came and opened their rose and sat inside to enjoy it. They…read morehave both indoor and outdoor seating areas with so many choices to choose from.
