A wonderful stop along the back road from Ashland coming home to Eugene just south of Grants Pass. We each did the five-wine sampler/flight and one of each of the charcuterie boards. The wines were all good. Obviously liked some more than others. I personally appreciate and prefer biodynamic wines. I just think they have better flavor. I'm not a wine snob, but Troon is Demeter Biodynamic and Regenerative Organic Gold Certified (only one of four in the world). The Amphora Amber Vermentino (orange) was good and the Tannat was awesome. They do small batch so many of the reds had already sold out. Our server, Kitty, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wines, the process, and the uniqueness of each variety. We were blown away! She paced the tastings perfectly. We weren't waiting too long in between and we also didn't feel rushed. I didn't take pictures, but the outdoor lawn area is wonderful. read more

Had a very lovely visit here. Their parking lot/area is adequate. The grounds are gorgeous, with ample outdoor seating. They offer table service for each pour, as opposed to just giving you a flight with the list of wines on a card. Mike was working the day we went in, and he was great to talk with. Their main building is very lovely, with lots of nice touches. Bottom line: I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. (One negative item was their prices. The flight was $25, where at other places down the road it's just $10 for a flight.) read more

Thousands of dollars per year for a known carcinogen. You won't hear the C word during the plethora of adjectives spoken to you in soft tones as you sip cancer. The only benefit, if it's even true, is the plantings in organic soil attract endangered butterflies. Meanwhile, back to me glass, it gives you cancer. Guaranteed. The next cigarette but far more expensive read more

We got the flight but didn't love it. The experience was great! Servers very nice and attentive ... just the wine was not as tasty as others we had tried but maybe we are wine snobs . Very beautiful ! They had an amazing Sunday spread sadly we were too dull to enjoy! Someone try it and let me know how it was!!! read more

Troon Vineyard - Rośe - Wineries Near Me - Grants Pass, Oregon

Beautiful location, friendly staff, and meaningful wine making. Being Oregon's only Demeter Biodynamic and Regenerative Organic Certified winery and farm, we definitely had to make the visit to Troon. We chose to sit outside at a shaded table amongst the flowers and butterflies. We explored the farm stand and played some lawn games before diving into our tasting flight. Troon's wines are unique and minimalist, using only native yeast and no additives during the fermentation process. Learning about how they implement biodynamics in their farming and wine making process was fascinating and you can appreciate the effort in each varietal. I only wish it wasn't so burning hot the day we visited because I would have loved to walk around more of the property. read more

We are fans of Troon's biodynamic, regenerative efforts and were excited to sign up for "Sunday Supper," expecting a farm-to-fork kind of meal. This is not the case, but here's the situation: on Sunday's a chef prepares a limited number of items (5 or 6) that can be ordered separately. We had beets, focaccia, hummus and a stellar chocolate/blu cheese dessert. We'd have loved a fresh salad or fruit, all in season. Our server was knowledgeable and offered good notes on the tastings, although not a lot of information on the biodynamic processes or what makes Troon unique. The outdoor seating is park-like. We liked a few of the wines and took home a few bottles. Altogether, solid but not my #1. read more

Great wines in the Beautiful Applegate & Rogue River Valley in Southern Oregon. The service was outstanding only about 25 miles from Medford. They have been awarded many awards for their winery. I want to thank the winery for the two (2) free J-1772 Charge Point electric car chargers for patrons to use. They also have two Bocce Courts and is family friendly offering a play area for children. Pets on a leash are allowed. read more

We had a wonderful afternoon! Alison was friendly and knowledgeable. The wine was delicious, and the atmosphere was relaxed. We will be back! read more

I love this place! The wine is fabulous and so is the facility. The staff is friendly and helpful. I love the grounds they are so gorgeous and comfortable! I can't wait to try the Sunday Supper ! read more

It's tough competition nearby, as if you only have time for one winery in the area, we'd give the edge to Wooldridge (largely for the food). But they work great as a double dip! Troon's relative strength is its big and pretty grounds to walk around. Like its neighbor, it offers beautiful views from shading seating areas, great service and great wine. read more

Troon Vineyard - Gardens open to the public - Wineries Near Me - Grants Pass, Oregon

This is a must do activity if you're on an Applegate wine outing. The grounds are gorgeous with a lot striking views in the background. It is an actual working farm so there's a bustle of activity, which I truly enjoyed watching. If you've never had natural wines, you may think the wine is a bit odd but I find that funky quality of them adds to the interest. I think that Troon does an amazing job at what they do. We had made reservations online so we got to sit on the patio but we were also given the option to sit out in the garden. Each little area to sit is cute in it's own right and there was literally no bad place. Our server was great. She knew a lot and paced our tasting very well. I almost bought too many bottles to fit into the car but that's ok, it gives me a reason to come back again. read more

I have very specific tastes in natural wines and generally have to lower my expectations when going to random tasting rooms because almost invariably they disappoint but this place is great. Subtle and deep flavors across the board and perfect if you like low intervention wine. The orange was especially great with less intensity from maceration than most orange wines you get and lots of complexity. Desirée was awesome as a host and we are definitely coming back read more

Went here yesterday. Delightful. Beautiful setting. Sat outside on a gorgeous fall day. Very knowledgeable and friendly server. Took excellent care of us and our dog. Some very good wines. Recommended. read more

A biodynamic winery, great value, and their wine is delightful!?!!? What?!? ALL true!!! Their grounds are serene and inviting! They have friendly and knowledgeable staff. Strongly suggest trying their Garrigue Syrah, Zinfandel, Siskiyou Syrah, and their white blend. Please note: you can buy food here, but not plated. You buy the entire package (crackers, salami, or cheese curds) or bottles (mustard or jam), and they provide the plates and knives for cutting and serving. read more

The wine is good and the location is great. The valley is beautiful, especially at night. We went to the tasting room with no appointment and the service was excellent. read more

First and foremost: Oliver made this review worth writing. Kind and prompt, Oliver is an expert in the subject, and possesses an unmatched hospitality. The world needs more Oliver. 10/10. The wine is some of the best *ive* ever had. Full of depth and dimension, it really helped to know what made the different elements pop in each drink. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the region is magical- even despite the smoke from the wildfires. Troon is easy to recommend for wine connoisseurs and normies alike! read more

Mike gave us an amazing experience! He made every aspect of our tasting exceptional- from being well versed on both the wine making process and the tasting profiles of all the wines to lovely conversation. The heated patio was a lovely option for a rainy southern Oregon winter day. We had a lovely time and will definitely be back with family and friends. read more

Yet another lovely trip to Troon. Troon is always our first stop when in Oregon wine country. I have never had or even seen the same servers twice and have always had an intimate and personalized experience. Troon clearly picks their staff as carefully as their grapes. Nate took care of us this Christmas Eve and made us feel like old friends, despite having other tables to take care of and being on his own. He made some excellent wine suggestions and was incredibly personable. Troon truly sets the bar, in wine and welcome. read more

If I could give more stars I would. Every wine I've tasted here during multiple days out have been amazing. I did a mixed flight today and each wine was better than the previous. I've been coming here since before they were named a top winery in the country and Troon never disappoints. read more

This is the second winery we stopped at during our winery drive. It was very close to Wooldridge, just down the street. Once you enter the driveway, you'll see the Spanish inspired villa, which is their main tasting room. The staff was very friendly, and they changed the sampling for us because we like whites better than reds. So instead of doing 1 white, 1 rose and 3 red, we got 4 whites and 1 Rose. The whites were light in flavor, but were "smokier" here. My boyfriend described them as "blue cheese like". Troon is known for their red wines, especially their Malbec. We tried a small sample of it, and it was pretty good. We walked around the vineyard and it's quite nice. We notice it is at a lower elevation than Wooldridge, so your Mountain View isn't as uninterrupted. However, the vineyard had a large backyard with fun amenities like a giant chessboard, Jenga and etc. read more

I really loved the location and outside area of the winery. It is truly beautiful. I wanted to really like the wine, because I believe in trying to develop sustainable ways to farm and promote organic processes. It is interesting how they use cow manure in horns to grow the wine. However, I did not care for the wine. The wine seemed cloudy and just ok too me. I will make one exception, and that is that I did not taste many of the reds, and maybe that is where their strong points were. I am no sommelier, so what one person might not like another person may think to so fabulous. read more

Troon Vineyard - two glasses of wine on a table - Wineries Near Me - Grants Pass, Oregon

Very pretty, knowledgeable staff but wine is just well, not great. We enjoyed the visit, since we miss being close to Paso and Napa, but hey, the wine is not good. One of the whites was good but was upward of $30 a bottle... And tastings are on the higher end as well at $20, perhaps the reason we were the only ones there when other places were crowded. Most places are $5 or $10. Overall enjoyed the visit, but hoping there is better wine to be found in So, Oregon. read more

We recently visited our friends who live in Grants Pass, Oregon. When they told us that we should go and visit wineries in nearby Applegate Valley, we looked at them with a kind smile that meant to portray: "We live near Napa & Sonoma Valley, do you really think your vineyards can reach our expectations?" Yet when we actually started our tour, we quickly realized that Applegate Valley will probably soon be a common wine reference as are the wine regions at home After a great lunch at 'Peace of Pizza', we spent a lovely afternoon in the garden of Troon Vineyards. Seriously, it was perfect: we spread out on the lawn: the adults, the kids and our dog. The kids played bocci ball and/or explored the garden, while the adults exchanged stories over a bottle of Druid's Fluid. Admittedly, I'm by no means a wine expert, but that bottle was great and reasonably priced. This visit will always be very memorable to me...if I see a bottle of their wines in the supermarket I will likely get one to relive that sunny afternoon in wonderful Applegate Valley... read more

Everything we tried was unique and lovely and went beyond the flight to order additional pours just to experience more. This is an amazing winery with terrific wines that will make "terroir" absolutely transparent for you. Just go!! Super knowledgeable staff who spend time explaining the unique qualities of each wine. Terrific experience and we will be back! read more

Troon Vineyard - a view of a vineyard through a gate - Wineries Near Me - Grants Pass, Oregon

HH says that visiting Troon was a delightful learning experience. They were doing tastings in a gorgeous outdoor garden due to COVID precautions. The day we were there was beautiful and because it was not crowded we were able to have our choice of tables. Our hostess was very knowledgeable of all the various wines (I suspect she was family as she said she'd been working there for 16 years and she was pushing 30!) She introduced us to several varietals that we'd never before encountered -- Piquette, which is a very dry sparkling wine, and a Kubli Bench Amber which is slightly orange in color - something we've never experienced before. So glad we gave this place a try! Would definitely return if the opportunity presented itself. read more

Beautiful property. Indoor and outdoor tastings. We liked their whites more than the reds. Very pleasant staff. Definitely worth the stop!

Beautiful scenery, amazing staff, and always a pleasure to come and enjoy the wonderful wines. On Sundays they have live music and bocce ball as well as an awesome lawn to enjoy some relax time. Only suggestion I have is to maybe have a tour option to know the winery more intimately. Come check it out! read more

Bree was one of the best servers I have ever experienced when winetasting. She was very knowledgeable about the wines and the bio dynamic process. The white wines were very unusual and interesting. Red wines are real solid. We had a lovely tasting underneath the trees overlooking the valley. read more

Wow! I have to say that Troon is one if my top picks for wine coming out of Oregon. I finally got to spend time at their tasting room in the Applegate Valley. Their outside seating is beautiful with a wonderful view. They're also dog friendly. Topanga guided me along and she was a huge help! It was only her second week and I was impressed with her knowledge as well as enthusiasm. Since I'm in Portland, I am really excited to check out their new tasting room in McMinville which will be much closer to home. read more

This place. Makes me want to move closer to go there all the time. Lovely grounds, free breadsticks during tasting and water in glass cups rather than plastic. The wine is simply put.. delicious. Grapes that are blessed by bagpipes and oak barreled rather than stainless steel is bound to taste good. But the fact that is still hand pressed to this day is such a lovely change of pace for a winery. Staff was super knowledgeable and kind. Music playing on the grounds, plenty of seating areas and a giant Jenga game make sitting outside lovely. Try the orange wine.. seriously. It's worth it! read more

Had a delightful visit at Troon today. Our "wine-ista", Angie, was charming and informative. We could not have asked for a better tasting experience! And the wine was good too! read more

This is the best winery in Southern Oregon and Applegate. I have been a member for several years and their wines are consistently superior to all in the area as well as throughout Oregon. They had a Valentine event with dinner and featuring their wines. The chef that planned and coordinated the dinner is what one would expect in 5 star restaurants. Troon has been able to secure competent,knowledgable , staff that make everyone feel very welcome. Their grounds are beautiful and wines are the very best. I am proud of them and grateful that such a class act is in my area. read more

Dani was AWESOME! She was so friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. She took the time to describe each wine, how the wine making process was different for each wine, literally any question I asked (which was a lot) she had an answer for. She was genuinely excited about the wines and Troon as a whole and it showed throughout our visit. The wines themselves are amazing and their reds are big and delicious! Thanks again to Dani for making our visit a truly memorable experience. read more

I've done my fair share of winery visits throughout California so when the opportunity came to visit Southern Oregon wineries, I jumped at the chance. I was not disappointed in what they have to offer and one of the wineries that stood out was Troon Vineyard. They have an absolutely beautiful property and I was pleasantly surprised with the lunch and dinner options they have on their "Troon to Table" menu. While we didn't eat there, the food we saw looked amazing. When we arrived, it was fairly busy at the tasting bar but that didn't stop Chris from getting us set right up. Their tasting flight consisted of two whites and the rest were red wines. White wines aren't my bag so I only tasted the 2010 dry Riesling and it was good but too sweet for my palate. The reds here were the best I tasted out of the 6 wineries we visited that day. The Druid's Fluid (love the name!) was a perfect mix of Merlot, Zin and Cabernet Sauvignon. I will be back to get some of that stuff because it was outstanding. Because I don't have a favorite varietal, I always tend to love the blends wherever I go. The 2007 Humbug Fire reserve cab made my legs melt. And, how awesome is it that they donate a portion of the proceeds of this wine to the firefighters who fight the wild fires in the area? As wonderful as all the wines here were, I left with one bottle of their 2009 Kubli Bench Zinfandel. It topped the scale but definitely came very close to all the others as my favorite. If money were no object and space (I'm borderline a candidate to be on an episode of "Hoarders" for my wine collection), I would have taken home much more. But, I'll definitely be back! read more

Really enjoyed this place and the property is beautiful. We ended up buying a bottle of their granache, it is delicious. The girl who helped us was very friendly, and the view from their tasting room is beautiful. Thanks for a good time! Visiting from Lincoln, CA. read more
