Flash forward a year or so ago, when they were having an event in late winter with complimentary tastings. Since then, I am there every few weeks. I joined the Chehalem Winery club and lucky for me, this is part of my membership!!! Sam, is the Tasting Room Manager and is kind to everyone who enters into the former car garage. There is a food cart on site and the menu has been updated by a new chef, you won't be disappointed. I'm not a big games person, but you will see me and my ladies down for Bingo the first Thursday of the month! Have I mentioned the music? The best musicians in Oregon Wine Country are there every Friday and Saturday evenings and with that comes many of their groupies. Other events include, trivia night and Song writers Show case as well as line dancing.

I contacted Kellie to rent a space for a small wedding ceremony and got quick responses. She's amazing. She helped us find the perfect room to rent and made sure it was filled with all the correct amount of tables and chairs. We rented room 201 for about five hours for the ceremony and a small reception. It was a perfect size, filled with huge windows for amazing natural light. The sweet lady from the front desk (gosh I wish I remembered her name-I'm sorry!) came to check on us to make sure everything was going okay. All I have to say is I absolutely love this space and all it offers. Chehalem and it's staff went above and beyond, providing us with exceptional service and a great room to celebrate our special day. I'll definitely be back for future events!

You can only reach the director via email.

They also run multiple business out of this building including a preschool. They do not prioritize the safety of the children or other business by allowing Homeless people to sleep where ever they like and go in and use the same restroom in the building.

We had a good wine tasting at Rain Dance Vineyards in Newburg, Oregon. Rain Dance was one of a few…read morewineries that we selected for our Willamette Valley wine tour (Oregon Wine Country). The staff was polite, welcoming, and friendly and the atmosphere was relaxing. The experience was like going into a nice home, next to a vineyard, for wine and cheese. Lovely atmosphere. Our group of eight had a Saturday afternoon reservation. We arrived and were seated before 12:30pm and left by around 1:45pm. This did not appear to be a big operation. During our visit, I saw only two lady employees tending to all the customers. Rain Dance has indoor and outdoor seating. We were seated inside. Regardless of where you sit, there are good views of the property's vineyard and garden. It's beautiful and serene. Shortly after our tasting began, a bachelorette party left. Therefore, we had the inside all to ourselves save for a couple seated by the window. The weather was pleasant so several doors to the house were left open, creating a calm, gentle breeze. We had the wines listed below. Individual bottle prices are from the time of our tasting and descriptions are from Rain Dance's website at the time of writing this review ( https://raindancevineyards.com/shop/ ). * 2022 Grand Oak Vineyard Riesling. $32 for 750-mL bottle. "Classic aromas and flavors of stone fruit and tropical flowers are lifted by vibrant acidity on the palate. This drier-style Riesling allows for so much versatility at the dinner table, but fish dishes are our favorites." * 2023 Grand Oak Gewurztraminer. $32 for 750-mL bottle. "A Rain Dance favorite! Gewurztraminer is a rare find in Oregon, especially in such a dry style. Its lively notes of jasmine, peach and spice box are perfect for Asian and Indian dishes loaded with their own exotic spices." * 2022 Estate Pinot Noir Cuvee. $45 for 750-mL bottle. "Fresh notes of cherries, pomegranate, plums, black pepper, pipe tobacco, and cinnamon." * 2021 Grand Oak Vineyard Pinot Noir. $60 for 750-mL bottle. "Bright and fresh with a complex assortment of dark cherries, raspberries, cranberries, intermingled with thyme, sage, and cinnamon." Since the time of our visit, I think the 2022 Grand Oak Vineyard Riesling and the 2021 Grand Oak Vineyard Pinot Noir have been replaced by 2023 and 2022 vintages, respectively. We also had at least two charcuterie boards ($35 each) that included crackers, roasted hazelnuts, onion jam, pork rillettes, raisins, and three kinds of cheese. The total cost for our group for everything was $336, which worked out to $42 per person. While I've been to a lot of wineries/vineyards and done a lot of wine tastings (just search my reviews), I'm still by no means a wine connoisseur. All I can say about Rain Dance is I thought all of the wines were enjoyable. All four, from the riesling to the pinot noirs, were delectable. They smelled and tasted well made and high quality. In short, I enjoyed our visit to Rain Dance and thought it was worth the visit. Rain Dance Vineyards is named after owners and founders Celia and Ken Austin's Rain Dance Ranch. The ranch was established in 1991 and the vineyard was established in 2009.

Sally single-handedly procures all the art, does all the incredible framing, provides the fun and personalized customer service, and displays the art in innovative ways - her front room, which is well lit at night and easily seen from Highway 99, is redressed on a regular basis and has about a gazillion coats of paint on the wall! Sally has superb taste in art and is super into the local art scene. Her commitment to Newberg is grand - she spearheaded the First Friday Artwalk program, a celebration of art, wine and food held every first Friday of the month from 5 to 9 p.m. throughout downtown Newberg.

The space and the people bring both of those things in a very unique and beautiful way. I appreciate that they offer alcohol free wine flights for those of us that choose to forgo the alcohol at times. In addition to their tastings I attended The Last Supper event which paired food and libations to music that honored musicians who passed in tragic ways. The entire event was executed with precision, style, and respect to the artists. Their events are exactly the vibe I fit into as an elder millennial genX woman who strives for life long fun and spice but isn't afraid of a little depth. If ever I were to join a wine club this would be it.
