They've done a great job of turning it into a bar/restaurant. I'm sorry I didn't get my server's name, because she was very friendly and helpful. I decided to start with the Cajun tots. I asked how spicy they were, and she said that they could go mild with the Cajun spice. It also came with a peppercorn ranch. I also ordered the Aztec salad. Romaine, corn & black bean salsa, avocado, tortilla strips, cheddar cheese, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, onion, chipotle dressing (I asked them to leave off the jalapeño...). She asked me if I wanted to add chicken, and I said yes. I added grilled chicken The food comes, the salad is very decent sized, and the order of tater tots was massive. The salad was a bit on the spicy side. That's on me, because I didn't read the menu very well, and I didn't realize that it had the chipotle dressing. My lips were definitely tingling a little bit. It was toward the high end of what I like for spice, but it was still very good. The chicken was tender and flavorful, with just a tiny bit of a char on it. It definitely added to the flavor. The tots were excellent. I'm glad I had her go light on the Cajun spice, cause even with light spice, again it was a bit spicy. Within what I like for spicy, but I definitely noticed it. The ranch helped calm the spice a bit I had enough tots left over to bring back to my room for breakfast. Prices are a little bit on the high end, but for what I got, quantity and quality, reasonable. Plus, the advantage that Oregon does not have sales tax. They also offer a military/veterans discount. I would stop here again the next time I'm passing through. Thank you!

The beers are experimental and creative with their beers making some pretty unusual beers that taste great! We have had three of their beers so far on two separate occasions and both times the beers were very impressive and enjoyable! One of the beers we had was the Thumb Ring. A Wild Ale that was excellent. It was aged on peaches, blackberries and coconut. Flavors featured with this beer are tartness, peachy, cherry and a hint of purposeful mustiness. Wit Bat was another beer we had. Also a Wild Ale this beer was wonderful also! Flavors to find with this Ale are tartness and jam like. The jam like qualities come from the marionberries and the Coriander brings it an extra depth. A very effervescent and elegant Ale. The third beer we had was the Earl of Tenmile. This was a Sour Ale with flavors of tart, sour, some sweetness and a clean finish. It is a blend of two and four year spontaneously fermented Ales. Such great beers and ales Draper has to offer and I would love to continue to explore with more of their beverage options which I hope would be in the near future.

So this place is choosing a family friendly night over a burnt out comp during the one time a year that this town has cars coming out for the whole weekend. Whoever came up with that idea is hands down an " IDIOT". Give the car enthusiast customers what they want. All these company's are going all PC.

There's also two little pups that hang out around the property and come over for an occasional belly rub. This winery was featuring arts and crafts on our visit where people were making decorative boards to take home while enjoying their wine/slushies and pizza.

During our first three visits we did a regular tasting while sitting under a vine-covered trellis with vineyards on three sides. Hailey of the tasting room took exceptional care of us during our 2024 and 2025 visits. 2026 Aug REVIEW: As in the previous two years (2024 / 2025) during our WA/OR wine road trips, we visited Abacela in August. This time three of us did a VINEYARD TOUR hosted by the CEO, Greg Jones. Exceeded expectations. SERVICE and AMBIANCE: 5.0. Every person we encountered was a pleasure: as with our previous three visits, we felt valued as customers. During the tour of the vineyards with Greg we learned much, including about the vines in both American and European vineyards, the varietals nurtured by Abacela, how Greg and his father had chosen the site for Abacela, and more. At each stop Greg poured us a wine to taste. A special treat was viewing the vines of Listan Prieto that Greg's father found on the property; these vines are thought to have been planted by the original homesteaders. This variety was carried into California with Spanish Catholic missionaires in order to grow grapes for creating wine for religious services. Abacela now produces "Angelica" wine from this varietal. After our drive through the vineyards we viewed the wine-making and wine-storage areas; from there we walked through a subterranean corridor to our starting point: Abacela's attractive tasting room. There, on the outside patio, Joe served us a generous cheese/charcuterie/etc plate with a flight of reserve wines. A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE. During our 2025 visit my wife and I brought a wine expert from Japan on our WA/OR wine road trip. She enjoyed the wines and the atmosphere at Abacela, as well as the short outside trail with signs that describe the terroir of Abacela's various vineyards. She found Abacela to be a place that those with a special interest in wine would enjoy. WINE: 4.5. Abacela focuses on Iberian (Spanish and Portugeuse) varietals. As during our previous visits, we enjoyed the wines and bought a few bottles to take home with us.

Let me first say that the smoked salmon plate was beautifully presented and very delicious. The salmon was tender and moist, accompanied with cream cheese and a wonderful pepper jelly. Oh, so good. My wine flight was mostly whites. My favorite tastes were the sauvignon blanc (not a typical suave blanc, less acidic with a smooth finish); the chardonnay, and the rose. But I enjoyed all the wines I tasted. Also note that they have a small gift shop with some very cute items. I'm so very glad we came here. Great staff, great views, great food and great wine.
