To the tasting room
Wendy B.

Airlie Winery is located right in the center of the gorgeous Willamette Valley, about 25 minutes outside the quaint town of Dallas. Take a beautiful, lazy ride (make sure you use your GPS!) that will help you to unwind before you arrive at this charming little winery. It is run by a dear self-made lady, Mary, a pioneer 25 years ago. She and her assistant winemaker and a hostload of amazingly loyal friends pretty much do everything themselves. Well, I qualify that. Once the grapes are picked. Mary is warm and welcoming, and after a great tasting experience, gave us the 50 cent tour of her small operation. The destemmer, the barrel room, the bottling area and everything in between. She has an interesting array of very good wines, many award winners. These were the winners for Mr. B: 2009 Mueller Thurgau estate wine. We bought 2. 2008 Gewurtztraminer, dry style. Not sweet, but finishes fruity. We bought 1. 2010 Reisling . Tart like a green apple. Nice. We bought 1. 2008 Late Harvest Gewurtz . We bought 1. Last but not least, her 2005 Port called "Nudge", fortified with brandy. We bought 1. Mary (aka saint in my book) donates the profits of the Port to her choice of animal and human causes. She was inspired to call it Nudge as a statement, to quote Mary, "...to nudge people to do the right thing". She also offers: 2009 Chardonnay, also estate bottled. 2009 Seven . This is a blend of all the whites. . 2007 Marechal Foch All good. If the perfect setting is not enough, you must meet her two gentle giant Irish setters, Riley and Rocky. Full of personality, obedient, and cleverly up to no good. As we were about to leave, one leaped into the driver's seat (oops, left the car door open). How cute we thought. Then realized there were (and I emphasize, were) some unclaimed beef jerky samples laying on the console from the day before. The little marauder was in heaven. You will not go wrong visiting here. And a wonderful place to schedule a special event.

What a beautiful location. As you can see from these pictures that are previously posted on here a lovely spot. We pulled up here yesterday and were pleasant surprised by the beautiful surroundings. The proprietor, Mary, was quick to greet us and usher us into the tasting room. It's a cute little bar set up complete with bar stools which is unusual for a tasting room. Most tasting rooms want to keep you on your feet and keep you moving. This place is quite a bit more laid back and easy going. They do not charge a fee for tasting and you may taste as many as you want and they make about nine different wines. If you do leave a gratuity it is given to the local food bank, which I thought was a nice touch. After tasting all the wines which were very flavorful. We made a selection of three wines and bid Mary adieu. The is outdoor seating where you may bring your picnic lunch and she says she does all her tastings outdoors when the weather permits in the summertime. There is a small body of water and a dock which takes you back to a simpler time or if you can't remember that far back, reruns of Dawson's Creek. Mary says one weekend in summer she has a campout with live music and if she adds your email to her email list you can get updates on the events at the winery. The wine is available in grocery stores as well as is relatively inexpensive. I'll definitely be back again to check this place out again.

Lovey winery, with a picturesque landscape . Beautiful grape vines in a Double Geneva Curtain. Their out door seating is perfect overlooking the vineyard & lake . We were very welcomed and had a wonderful tasting experience. They offered a wide variety of whites and reds . You will easily find your new favorite. Thank you for the wonderful experience .

My new favorite winery. The wine selection is great and the tasting consists of 6 wines of your choice for only $10. Of that $10, $5 is donated to local food banks. The grounds are gorgeous and the dogs are very cute.

Stopped here on way to and from the coast from Salem. Nice place. Nice knowledgeable staff…read more Several interesting ciders. One favorite of mine is Folklore. It is a standout because it is a dry cider made from cider apples. Since cider began to gain popularity in the last few years, a lot of cider makers make cider from eating/dessert apples. Traditional cider apples are hard to come by. Eating apples tend to not have a lot of flavor once the sugar is fermented away. Traditional cider apples have more complex profiles, beyond sugar. Folklore is made from cider apples. It is dry with complex character, full flavor, and an apple "nose". I brought home a growler jug and it kept well over a few days, with the flavor holding up well and the apple aroma becoming more apparent as the carbonation subsided slightly. This cider was reminiscent of draft ciders I had in UK made of apples such as Kingston black and Yarlington mill, though it is less intense, and less alcoholic. A pint of those would knock me on my keister. Folklore is more moderate. Anyway. Living in socal sadly won't be getting this much. This is especially true, as Folklore is made in small batches and it varies batch to batch based on limited availability of cider apples. Hopefully in the future Cider apples will become more common.

An amazing and cozy cider house just outside of Dallas. Always look forward to their seasonal…read moreciders!
