We dropped by here today and tasted some wine…read more Summer was on staff there and she was able to give us the story of the winery's origin. Which was very interesting but I'll let her tell you about it when you visit. On my way up there I discovered there was a Groupon for $20 you could get a tasting of eight wines for two people. So, I purchased that which was a great deal. It turns out it's a misprint there is actually only six wines but still a great deal. This was a weekday visit and they had some prepackaged food for purchase and also soft drinks. We purchased a couple meat and cheese trays and went outside to enjoy the wine. It was nice outside finally under 80 and air quality not terrible for a pleasant change. They have a great many tables and chairs and umbrellas outdoors making it a nice stop for spring and summer. The wine club sounded intriguing and I'll definitely ponder that as everything tasted great. I'll definitely be back to try it again.

We were welcomed with a splash of their Blanc de Noirs. A glass of bubbly is always a good way to start a tasting! Then we settled into the tasting cabin with the beautiful green woodburning fireplace, which kept us nice and cozy on this chilly PNW day. Brandon and Claire took us through six wine tastings: 3 reds and 3 whites. My husband and I both fell in love with the La Source wines: the La Source Chardonnay and the La Source Pinot Noir. But all of their wines were beautiful. The new(ish) tasting cabins make a wine tasting experience here pure PNW: warm and welcoming, cozy and comforting, and the wines are lovely expressions of the terroir here in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA. I definitely recommend making a reservation for a tasting at Evening Land! The people are always a huge part of what make a wine tasting experience special, and Brandon and Claire were amazing. The wines are delicious, and the vineyard views are stunning. If you're in Portland, it's about a 45-minute to 1-hour drive to Evening Land. Totally worth it for an unforgettable experience.

Although the setting of the winery was lovely, the wines were a huge disappointment. The fact that…read morewe were the only ones there should have given us a clue, especially since right down the road at Illahe the parking lot was packed. The three of us have visited many Oregon wineries and while it is understood that the palate may be individual, it is hard to get around the fact that not one of the samples from their tasting was drinkable by any of us. The published ad was evidently a paid promotion by the winery, for the venue rather than the wine. Don't waste your time and money, since the tastings were $20 for each of us and all had to be dumped.

Michael was the chef, and his presentations rival any Michelan rated chef. We had a four course tasting menu, and 5 wines, with bonus desserts at the end.  Every course was beautiful and delicious. Michael explains each food course, while our host Jessica explains the wine it is being prepared with. There wasn't a course that wasn't anything less than exceptional. However, if we had to choose, the real standout was the corn with winter mushrooms. The presentation looked like corn on the cob, but underneath there was a delicious creamy polenta, that surrounded by seasonal mushrooms.  We were informed that Chef Michael changes the menu regularly so no two experiences will be the same.

Sadly we never made it to the original location (we live in Salem) but the new restaurant & bar is absolutely fantastic and a place worth driving for. We finally decided to come by and do trivia with Aaron (Oregon Trivia Company) and were so glad we did--Aaron has been one of our favorite hosts around Salem for many years now and when he said he was starting to do shows at Divine Distillers on Thursday nights (ya'll need to come have fun with us! :) we knew we'd be there. As usual, it didn't disappoint--just the right amount of challenging/fun questions, great hosting & an enjoyable way to break up the work week! The space is quite large with plenty of seating for groups and they're working on putting in a beer garden with fire pits--looks like it'll be a super fun place to meet up with friends & hang out this summer. It's usually pretty chill there on a weeknight so it's easy to relax and take your time. The drink menu is very creative & fun with everything from beer to cocktails to ciders, all featuring pours made right in-house by the talented staff. Check out one of their flights to get a taste of multiple sips & pick your new favorite! Also, the food here BLOWS US AWAY. Seriously some of the best food we've had in a very long time. I personally can't stop dreaming about the Tri-Tip (cooked to tender, juicy perfection & topped with chimichurri), the Elotes with Pulled Pork (rich, smoky & creamy), the House Burger (simple yet spectacular) or the Shrimp Fajitas (a delicious pile of tasty fixings that made me very happy). We were told the chef is a BBQ master and it shows--can't wait to try everything else on the menu soon! Other Bonuses: Ample, easy parking in a private lot, super friendly & approachable staff and clean & comfortable restaurant with lots of space & more expansions/improvements in the works! Plus, you can buy bottles of their spirits to go. If you were a fan of Divine Distillers before or have just been driving by wondering about this place, do yourself a favor & check it out. I know we'll be going back soon!

Trinity has recently added Friday evening happy hour, and also, their newest addition is a fantastic farm to table food truck that Cindy Parker has mastered the fine art of food fushion.
