Our little family group decided to celebrate Mother's Day at this beautiful vineyard. We thoroughly enjoyed the wine tasting and all of the food. The service was super friendly and we were given a history lesson on the Vineyard and the family that started the vineyard. Definitely will be taking my friends there in the near future can't wait to show this vineyard off and the wines. Thank you again for a wonderful Mother's Day. read more

For a few years now, I've wanted to visit Bjornson but never made the time to do so. Since I was visiting another winery about a mile away for an event they were having, I had to stop at Bjornson before that. And was I glad I did. They have a stellar selection of both reds and whites. I opted for their standard tasting, which just scratches the surface of the wines that are available from this great, boutique winery. Don't get me wrong, I love the big boys, too, but there is something extra special about going to a smaller winery and enjoying a fantastic wine in an atmosphere that is more intimate. It's like finding a hidden gem next to another gem! What a treat! I was served by Becky, who was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. When I left, I bought a bottle of wine, but since it's a boutique winery and I didn't know if they'd have this other bottle I wanted, I opted for both, which is rare for me (unless I need to purchase 2 bottles to waive the tasting fee). read more

Bjornson is my go-to place to show off to out-of-towners. With dog-friendly outdoor seating, gorgeous views of not one, but TWO of the cascade mountains, some of the kindest people you'll ever meet, and wines that balance approachability with remarkable variety and depth, Bjornson is a must-visit on any sunny day in the valley. read more

Bjornson is an A+ experience! Alexis was our host and we could not have had a better experience learning, sampling exquisite wines, and even joining the Bjornson family with a membership. We did a full tasting and had some delicious charcuterie & hummus while enjoying the stunning patio and October sunshine in Willamette Valley. read more

We arrived at this winery at -4:05 and were welcomed for a tasting unlike the prior winery (Cristom) who would not take new customers after 4 (we were there at exactly 4). Wow are we glad Bjornson wanted our business! The wines were fantastic and the wine mgr who served us was absolutely outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. We purchased 3 bottles and left very happy customers!!! This is our 1st visit to Oregon and after almost 2 weeks of wine tasting, Bjornson is one of our favorites by far. Highly recommend! read more

I adore this vineyard with its views, friendly tasting room staff, and top notch wines. We also had an incredible plate of cheeses, meats, and more. Let me summarize with WOW. read more

The wine is fantastic. The view is breathtaking. The staff is the most friendly and make you feel at home. We came back for a full tasting after we missed our reservation the day before. We did stop in that day to buy glass of wine but they just gave us a pour and chatted while we talked about local restaurants. This is more than a winery. They create community. read more

This is a beautiful winery with fantastic wines and knowledgeable staff. It's definitely one of my favorites

We stopped by for the first time late afternoon. They accommodated us with a curated red flight which was delicious. After, Corin recommended another wine which she gave us a tasting of. We ended up buying two bottles! She sat and talked to us and made us feel like family. And, did I mention the view?! This tasting room is very close to Salem and worth the visit. Highly recommend-especially if you like Pinot Noir. read more

The highlight of this place was the incredibly kind owners. We stopped for a quick treat this Fall, and we loved everything we tried. Every wine was delicious. The almonds and dried fruit on the cheese plate were so good I couldn't stop eating them. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area. read more

Our wine pourer Alexis was very knowledgeable about the wine industry in the Williamette Valley, hiking in the Columbia River Gorge, and kind to our dog. We enjoyed the wines we tasted, and loved pairing the pinot noir with our raspberry stuffed pork loin later in the week. The views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson were amazing! read more

Ok, first of all I love their wine - it's lovely... and the place is lively.... But the person who sat us and told us about the pricing of the wines and joining the wine club completely mislead us and that's not right. He told us that we would get 50% off on all of our wines when we join the wine club but it then he said, " 50% off only on the first bottle you drink here." He was a older gentleman with golf clothes and was pleasant but really try to sell us hard on the wine club membership so he misled us with wrong information. I have one recommendation for the owners... please make sure your employees have and represent correct information... because of this experience, as much as we love your wine, we will be canceling our wine club! Also, we ended up buying over $500 worth of wine and the old guy stood over me and wanting some kind of tip and I felt pressured to tip him which I ended up doing... I just feel like I've been duped. Additionally, I had a weird feeling that we didn't get all the wine we purchased so we stopped over on the side of the street to count and check the wine, and sure enough they had not provided us the Magnus, their most expensive wine!! So glad we checked before we got to our home which was over an hour away!! I hate the fact that this will effect how I feel about the winery, and it's too bad. read more

We visited Bjornson Vineyards with our service dog and received a friendly welcome! I liked all the wines and they offer yummy snacks. As walk in's on a Saturday in January, the tasting room wasn't slammed and the seating was comfortably spaced out. We will definitely be back! read more

Jerry, Monica and Traci (I'm confident everyone else who is involved in this brilliant, brilliant vineyard), NO WORDS to accurately describe this brilliance. Björnson Vineyards, HANDS DOWN. The hospitality. The ambiance. The welcomeness. The brilliance. The air. Be here, you will be joined right where you are. read more

This is a gorgeous place to sample delicious red wine. We loved sitting outside and enjoying colorful flowers and sweeping views of the vineyard. Luckily, when we mentioned that we prefer red wines, the server adjusted the tasting to five red wines instead of insisting we try the others on the tasting menu. The server provided detailed information about each of the wines we sampled. read more

We had an outstanding experience at Bjornson Vineyard today. We sat outside at one of their picnic tables. Ben brought our flights of wine to our table for us to taste while we enjoyed our picnic lunch. The wines are excellent and we enjoyed every sip. We really appreciated his kindness and attentiveness. When he learned that this was the first wine tasting for one younger person in our party, he proceeded to teach her the basics. In essence, he gave her an introductory seminar on wine tasting! He also told us some of the family history of the Bjornsons. The whole experience was delightful and highly informative. read more

This is was of our favorite wine tasting experiences we've had in all of Oregon. The atmosphere is super laid back, which is refreshing in a wine region like this that produces such good wines that you typically expect more pretentious settings. And the best part is that their wines are still just as good! We shared a 6 tasting flight and had a wonderful time. Jerry was serving us and made the experience so enjoyable, checking in on us often enough and being available for conversation yet still allowing us to enjoy our wine. They truly make you feel at home! We got to try some of the same varietals from different years side by side, which was so fun. I highly recommend their pinots, but they also have some great whites that are worth trying. Overall, beautiful setting and such a wonderful staff. I'd come back even if their wines weren't good, but thank goodness they also have great wines! Definitely worth coming to and making a regular destination. read more

Wonderful place! Great wines. Great staff. Beautiful scenery. Jason was very attentive and knowledgeable.

This place is awesome and the wine is even better! The most knowledgeable people we met during our visit, and it was a pleasure to spend time at this vineyard. I agree that this is more of a winery, it is a place that celebrates friendship and wine. Always a great combination! read more

Had the most wonderful time here with Gerry as our guide. Been to hundreds of wine tastings and this is one of few I will remember this vividly. Learned so much about the region and the wine making process, and felt very welcomed as if we were part of the winery's broader family. GERRY- cannot thank you enough for the experience!!!!! read more

I'm a trained winemaker and worked in the wine industry internationally including the Napa Valley for 4 years. I was very pleasantly surprised by the wines offered at Bjorn and would highly recommend the tasting room experience. The pinots were on the same level as any in the Willamette valley. I purchased 3 of the reserve which were listed for $45. I also thought their sparkling rose was a steal at $29/bottle and purchased 3 bottles. The venue is very scenic. The tasting staff is exceptional. We had Jerry who explained the wines and soil types in great detail. There are a few wines that could use some adjustments to be top rated international quality, but on the whole, I'm certain you won't be disappointed making this winery a destination. read more

The nicest people- Gerry and Aaron get big shutouts! The wine is great as well, highly recommend. In a beautiful hilltop setting, we unfortunately didn't sit outside as it was 110 degrees- crazy! But will be back for sure. read more

What an amazingly beautiful place with wonderful people. I'm a wine newbie but we were treated more as friends than customers. I am very grateful it was a slow day in June with perfect weather. I'm sorry I can't remember their names but it doesn't matter as they were all overly welcoming and attentive. Also met a great local couple who had great stories and endless wine knowledge. Thank you for a perfect first visit, I will be back. read more
