A local favorite of mine, I'd say! Especially if you're staying in the Banks, Forest Grove, or…read moreHillsboro area. This is one vineyard that's a short drive, and not very difficult to get to for being located in Cornelius. No long and windy roads is what I'm implying. An easy vineyard you can show out-of-town guest what Oregon wines are all about. I feel this would be a quick treat for them. Even after work, just to relax with a glass and charcuterie board, we've been here! ~ The Views (or a view) ~ If you've seen the yelp pics on the views, then that's exactly all you'll get. You can chill inside for a tasting or out on the patio while enjoying an excellent view of the vineyard. On a clear sunny day, you can see Mt Hood in the background. Down below the patio, at vineyard-level, there are a few wooden beach chairs and picnic tables as well. It's relaxing wherever you choose really, to say the least. ~ Reds, Whites, and You ~ If you're looking for a white chard that's not too sweet, then this is your place! Their wines are simple enough to enjoy. I don't recall having a bad pour. But like practically every vineyard in Oregon, they too serve pinot noirs. I personally have more of an earthy pallet, so I do not have a taste for pinot gris or rieslings, but theirs I did admire. You'll have to try them for yourself. Again, I believe all their variations can satisfy anyone's pallet. ~ Owners, Staff, and Service ~ At one of the member events, we did get the opportunity to meet the owners, and their pup. All of them really down-to-earth people in my opinion. But I would like to give credit to Mach and Melissa as well. These two hustle! Not for you to just purchase their wines and join the club, but they're attentive on what you'd be interested in. Thank your Mach and Melissa for your generous and friendly hospitality. We've had questions, they've had answers. This little winery just gives you everything you'd expect from a winery. Case and point!

The cherry on the top of the sundae was the dessert Syrah and chocolate tasting to end the experience on a high note. It was so luxurious I had to take a bottle of the special port style dessert wine home to enjoy on special occasions. We can't wait to return and have another experience like today. Thanks again to Michelle for such a memorable service experience.

(I am officially an adult!) They make great chardonnay and pinot and rosé and usually feature a guest winemaker. I'm always pleasantly surprised by things I normally don't prefer eg Riesling or merlot. It's all good! Tastings are casual and unpretentious affairs, dog- and kid-friendly! There's seating inside the house, tables outside for nice weather, and you can bring snacks and picnic. The price of the tasting is waived if you buy wine; their bottles run in the $20-30 range (with a discount for club members). Highly recommend a visit! It's close to Helvetia just up past the Tavern and Grossen peaches and the alpaca farm.

We made a reservation in advance and were really looking forward to visiting this winery,…read moreespecially since we had brought my parents from far away for what we hoped would be a memorable experience. Unfortunately, it turned out to be quite disappointing. While some members of our group were doing the wine tasting, the rest of us were not allowed to order wine and had to wait until the tasting was finished. It didn't make sense that we couldn't simply enjoy a glass of wine while waiting. It was quite cold outside, so we asked if we could move indoors. We were told that the indoor tables were reserved, and instead we were offered blankets. Although we appreciated the gesture, it wasn't a comfortable solution given the weather. We had booked the 2:00 p.m. reservation (the online booking only offered 2:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. time slots), but by 3:00 p.m. our tasting had to be wrapped up. If reservations are limited to one hour, that should be made much clearer during the booking process. To make matters worse, the wine we were most looking forward to tasting was never served. It was only after we asked about it that we were told it had sold out. This is something that should have been communicated before the tasting began, not after we noticed it was missing. We came a long way hoping to share a special winery experience with my parents, but poor communication and the way the experience was managed made the visit far less enjoyable than we had expected. I hope the winery improves its communication and reservation process so future guests have a better experience.

This is an amazing vineyard run by the best people!! We wanted to spend a calm afternoon in a…read morevineyard and did not want to drive too far out from Hillsboro. Eagles Nest popped up on Google Maps and away we went. This vineyard is like an eagles nest - you have views of the beautiful sky, rolling hills and the urban buildings of Hillsboro in the distance. They have only started making wine in the last couple of years, so the vineyard is still new. We walked through some of the vines and you could see grapes in different stages of growth. There are a few tables, a few Adirondack chairs and soft rolling grass that you can sit and enjoy the views on. The wine? Delicious! We tried the red flight which was a mix of roses and reds. The wine making here is based on naturalized farming techniques and limited interventions. They depend on the silt from the nearby Columbia River to enrich the grapes. I'm not a fan of reds but I enjoyed this vineyard a lot! We will be back when we are in Oregon next time :)

They have some really great snacky food options as well as a reservation only night that has a full diner. Friday night bites is a cool event in the summer too. Thank you Maxine at DAnu wines for hosting Women in Business this evening.

I purchased a Living Social coupon and it was due to expire. So, I while I had planned to use this…read morecoupon during the sunny summer months,alas, here it was late October and the rain had started. This property is off the beaten path, but well signed and you have to know in advance that this location is at the end of Dick Road (so keep going). I had looked it up on the map and noticed that fact so I knew that at the end of the road there would be the vineyard. We pulled up to a house but it had various golf carts and other implements around so it appeared that no one resided there. The sign on the front door said join us outside on the patio just down the stairs. So, we followed down the stairs (I'm not sure what you do if you cannot do stairs--it looks like you maybe able to pull around on another side but I'm not clear on that) I would probably call first if I had any kind of mobility issues. We walked a little ways and saw a lighted room and so we went inside. Turns out this is the bathroom and not where they were wine tasting. We kept walking through the patio and there was no one in site. Finally, we spotted a large tent that was put up and the tasting area was set up there. We walked in and were casually greeted by a young girl who proceeded to tell us what they were out of and wanted to know if we wanted to taste a wine. I said that we had a coupon for the lunch basket and she wanted the info off of that and she would go and make it up. She then took off to go do that leaving us huddled on some damp chairs under the tent with another couple. It was about 48 degrees under the tent and they had heaters for the outdoors but they weren't lit. The YS and I were beginning to think we should get the food to go and forget the wine. Then the owner Melinda came out and asked if we wanted to taste a wine and proceeded to tell us a bit about them and we decided to split a tasting. She told us about how their vineyard as well as their farm acreage (they have about 70 acres). While we were talking the girl brought out the food and set it down not saying anything to anyone. I later asked Melinda if that was for us and she said yes. Melinda also quickly lit the heaters when she got out there she said that her helper (the girl from earlier) didn't know how to do it. I think the girl needs some training as she's doing a great business a real disservice. We ended up eating our lunch which was very tasty and bought a bottle of wine to enjoy with our lunch as well as two bottles to take home. I will say that our first impression was not a great one based on the girl and her demeanor we were going to eat and leave. Melinda is very friendly and customer service oriented. I will definitely be back again. If we didn't have two wine club memberships already we would have joined theirs as they have fun events with the wine pick ups as well as other events open to the general public. Beautiful setting, I would highly recommend.

We actually attended an event in the afternoon that Cho was part of and were able to visit with Dave. We knew when we headed to Cho we were too late for a tasting but were hoping to squeeze a glass in before the they closed. My friend really wanted me to see the tasting room cause he knew I was a member and would appreciate the space. Thank you to the team and Lois for accommodating us. It was a fight day and we were there late so I definitely will be back when it's lighter out. Really loved the space warm and welcoming and reflecting their culture as a fellow Asian American I loved it!! I already knew the wine would be wonderful otherwise I wouldn't have joined. But another goal of my friend's was to have their Rock Syrah it's one of his favorites. We drank it there and bought a bottle of the Syrah West to enjoy back at our hotel as we had some time to waster before dinner. Can't wait to visit the area again always a pleasure to visit with Lois and Dave was nice to be able to do it in Oregon instead Seattle.

We were immediately greeted by their friendly staff. Despite being busy, they accommodated us in their main tasting room. They were quick to pour and tell us all about their wines and blends. Boy do they know their wines! We had a lovely time and conversed with many of the staff our first visit. It just felt like family. Not typically my MO, but we actually signed up for their membership our first visit! We thoroughly enjoy our quarterly wines... so much so, I'm drinking a glass as I type this review! A benefit of membership is getting to visit on a regular basis for tastings. We love to bring friends and guests who have all enjoyed it thoroughly. When you go, make sure to get a charcuterie platter, it is DELIGHTFUL!!! Looking forward to visit again, it's worth your 45 minute drive from Portland!

We have tasted at wineries all across California and Oregon (relaxed all the way to fancy), and we tend to prefer places like Oak Knoll. It just feels like everyone is welcome, we get to pick which wines we want to taste, and there's a bottle of something for every preference. $15 for 6 2-ish oz pours and there were more than 12 wines available, so my husband and I each made our picks with only 1 overlap and got to try most of the offerings. We stock all kinds of wine in the house: red, white, bold, dry, sweet, earthy, blackberry, and more. We bought a bottle of the white blend and twilight blush because they were delightful and flavors we felt were missing from our cabinet. I see us stopping by a couple of times a year for an easy afternoon date to get some fresh air, sip a variety of wines, talk and decompress, and still have enough money to take home a bottle or two without breaking the bank. Staff was lovely; warm and friendly without being pretentious or pushy. Thank you!

Stopped in today to see - did I have a membership? I know I used a card that's tied to an old email - so really truly unsure. Figured it would be a no or a pickup. Instead; when I wanted to try a wine to see if it was worth drinking, I got the third degree. I dared to ask for a wine on the wall behind the counter - apparently those aren't wines that they have but a display of old ones. LOL: So I ascertained from the experience that I won't likely want to come back so I requested cancellation. No hard feelings - nothing bad - just not my deals Then was asked why - well, I'm from California wine country and I don't want to continue to he a member at a winery with wine I don't enjoy and a vibe I don't like. Kudos to the other worker who got the hint and helped me to checkout. This place is lovely and clearly has a strong following so much love to local businesses like this. I just would have loved a little kindness (reminder this was an issue with one of the workers and not the other - she was a delight!!)
