An industry friend recommended Domaine Drouhin and it was on our list of wineries to visit so we…read moredecided drive two hours through incredibly heavy rains to make the visit. There were no tastings available, but given the weather we had just driven through to get there, and bc my friend is a certified somm with the CMS, we decided simply to create our own tasting experience from the single pour options made available. Other reviewers have also mentioned it, but when we sought input from the staff to make our initial wine selections, our experience of service was underwhelming. It was frankly a little disappointing given the status and caliber of the house. Gratefully we met Ben who was solidly helpful; he appreciative of our Quest to create a meaningful tasting experience for ourselves, even if we had not been able to score an appointment with a venue host. He was very knowledgeable and spoke to with us without condescension, intelligently answering our questions about the vineyards, wine making processes, and house history. With his help we also learned about some excellent options for dining in the area. Ben poured our selection of four wines and we chose to take the glasses outside on the patio as the rain had stopped. We helped another couple with photos they were trying to take, and then were able to film a few tasting clips against the picturesque back drop of the vineyards. We ordered a serving of the gougères, which came out warm and were delicious. I picked up a bottle of the Zeraphine Pinot Noir for the friend who had recommended the winery, and Mac picked up three bottles including the estate chardonnay, to return to Canada with. All in all a solid self-guided tasting and learning experience.

Great tour of the facility. Here we were inside. I would have preferred outside but probably due to…read morethe size of our group this suited them best. The wine was not for my pallet but that is okay as the next person loved it.

This is the second review that I have done for Stoller Family Estate. We came for the spring…read morerelease yesterday, and I have to say that I continue to be impressed by not only the quality of the wines at Stoller, but also the service of the staff. They are so friendly and obliging to any needs that surfaced. Thank you Stoller for continuing to be excellent.

Took our friends to this spot when they were visiting Oregon and loved it so much! It really is the…read moreperfect setting for a nice spring/summer day; though be warned, the picnic chairs in the sun likely do get a bit hot if you're there during the height of summer. Thankfully, we made a Heritage Room reservation and were able to enjoy the outdoors under some umbrella shade. Two of us a wine tasting, 1 grabbed a glass of red, and the other was there for company and some N/A musings. We also had the charcuterie board and cookies, both of which were good overall. I absolutely adore this spot for having N/A options which on this day was an orange creamsicle inspired slush. Service was really accommodating...since I can be quite the slow sipper at times. They definitely did not make us feel rushed. This is such a picturesque spot and I couldn't help but adore the giant tree with the tire swing in the middle. People were absolutely trekking across the lawn to enjoy it. This is a rather family friendly winery and there were tons of families, a bridal shower, and just folks enjoying the day. High high points for an inclusive space. Check it out if you're looking for a cute winery to enjoy!

During our wine tasting tour in the Willamette Valley, we had a wine blend with Knutson grown…read moregrapes at another winery and liked it so much we decided to go see it for ourselves. We were greeted by the host who was friendly and gave us a sample as we found our seat on the patio. The patio is fabulous with a beautiful view of the area. We decided not to do a tasting because we wanted to try their Pinot Noir so we each got a glass of a different Pinot and settled in the shade and Beaty with some Oregon grown hazelnuts. The 2022 Backstory was a beautiful and bolder Pinot which I love. It turned out to be my favorite Pinot tasted on our trip. Additionally the host was knowledgeable and willing to answer questions. I like going to wineries where you learn about the wine you are drinking and that was definitely the case here. When I'm back in the area, I will head here first. And we also got the lowdown on the membership!

Furioso Vineyards was the last winery my group of friends visited on our self-guided tour of the…read moreWilliamette Valley, and it was quite the showstopper. Furioso is very modern and hip. Their inside tasting room is beautifully designed, and the high glass walls provide guests sweeping views of the Williamette Valley. They proudly fly the gay pride flag at their property, and I'm pretty sure an employee told me almost half of their staff are members of the LGBTQIA+ community. The customer service here is also exceptional. The weather was beautiful during my group's visit, so we opted to sit outside and enjoy our wines right by the grapevines. There was a sleek water wall right behind us that helped to cool the air around us, allowing us to enjoy the dreamy setting in style and comfort.

Located in the attic of the winery is the White Rose Estate Tasting Room. There are no windows!…read moreLike i said, it's build in the attic of this establishment. It's dark and cozy. Some review called it claustrophobic but I think the dark imagery is part of a wine maker's M-O (like a cellar) Wine was good. They also serve you affogato or expresso at the end of your visit. What a great touch. The exterior view of the valley is spectacular. Everything you would want to see when you imagine wineries and wine making. (ps- this valley is famous for its Pinots)

Exceptional experience! Best service, everyone is kind and…read moreattentive. It genuinely feels like they want you to have the best time. Indoor is very spacious and set up to function like a big restaurant. They have a huge outdoor patio with multiple tiers and some small water feature. Additionally, patio is a mix of full sun and shade. To my memory, all tables have umbrellas. As usual, wine was great!

Our party of six enjoyed the Sabering Experience at Domaine Willamette. The weather was beautiful,…read morethe setting in the pavilion was open air, shaded and had a nice cross breeze. It is spacious and even though other parties were there it felt somewhat private. Greg, our Wine Ambassador, was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the history of the property, the wine, the necessary steps to take to saber a bottle of sparkling wine safely, and made it such an amazing and fun experience for us. Then he brought us meat and cheese plates and our bottles of wine to enjoy. Everyone made us feel welcome and important. It's a very fun experience that lives up to the hype. I would highly recommend it and ask for Greg!

SB is the Oregon winery to visit. Their service is impeccable, always friendly-regardless of how…read morebusy they are you always feel like the priority guest-and they are extremely knowledgeable about all their wines. They have several spaces for tastings, both for members and guests new to SB, indoor and outdoor, kid and dog friendly, with an incredible view of the not only the vineyards but the mountains. They have several small bite food options, the charcuterie or cheese boards are perfectly paired with the tasting menu choices for that day, there was a fresh baked focaccia today that was heaven. Oh and I have not even mentioned the fantastic wines yet. Whether you are a red or white fan, like whole cluster or small, tannins or less tannins, sweet or full bodied reds, you can find them at SB. And that is not to say they make such a variety that they are spread thin cause that's what I would think if I read that. They are meticulous about every wine they make, it's special, has specific flavors, pairs with particular foods well, each year with its vintage that every one has their own favorites of. We have member members for over a decade, their wine, the winery, and the people are the perfect combination.

Seriously - it's hard to justify spending money at other wineries because their wine just falls FLAT. I've been sitting on this review for years now... (my mistake) I guess I just wanted to keep this perfect secret as my own. If you're coming to the willamette valley for GOOD WINE, you need to come here. Also, the staff has been top notch. Michael is our favorite sommelier, Jack is the BEST member relations manager, Ameer is the most entertaining, Shay is the friendliest ever, Dominic and Geovany walk you through the taste palates. I just love this place. The view is breathtaking! Yes, the cost is high end for the area - BUT, if you appreciate a good glass of Pinot noir, this place is your dream. DS puts all other wine to shame.

LOVED THIS! We went on a foggy day and were unable to see the view, but it was still totally…read moremagical. It looks like a castle inside, something you'd never expect for being in the countryside in Oregon. It was breathtaking. Michael was our server and was awesome. He poured us a lot of fun side-by-sides, which is such a cool way to taste because it allows you to compare flavors and learn more about personal preference. He spent time and effort making sure we had fun, but also that we learned something. We were there for a long time, so don't book anything after (or close after). I would say skip the food here too. The only downside, which doesn't even merit the loss of a star, is the purchasing wine. We got two bottles, and had to go to another building to grab them. It was odd, we waited in what looked like someone's office. There were about 10 other people waiting in there with no employees or sign that anyone knew we were there. After like 15 min, we knocked on a door, and maybe 5 after that, someone started bringing orders out. Really weird system. I can see it for cases, but it was weird to have to spend 20 min in an auxillary building to grab one bottle.
