Amazing value for delicious wines. Only $10 tasting charge but free with membership...only 2 bottles per quarter for a basic membership. Steve, owner was super friendly and knowledgeable. read more

This is the only winery I've been to in years that still has $10 tastings (and it's six pours!)-- that alone is enough to earn high praise. The tasting room is intimate but comfortable and very well air conditioned, which was much appreciated as it was over 100 outside! The gentleman pouring was absolutely lovely and very attentive even though the place was packed when we arrived. The wine was good. Usually I am more of a white wine enthusiast, but the Barbera here was excellent. The Tempranillo was very spicy, which worked for me but I know does not appeal to everyone. read more

The wine is absolutely delicious and full flavored! The service is top notch. You feel like family. We highly recommend you add this as a stop on your trip! With two locations you can get the vineyard views or a quick easy downtown stop. read more

A wonderful find in the downtown area of Newberg. Small tasting room but it flows nicely and has fiercely loyal customer base. The members help to keep the prices lower than some of the surrounding tasting rooms. A knowledgeable staff very well versed in the art of conversation not too over the top on the wine lingo. Enough to wet your whistle and give you a good story about your bottle as you open it at your event. Surely you will be the star of the show when you offer this wine to your friends. Of course its about taste and each individual can and will find something they like maybe even a couple favorites. They make a wide variety and even try some special bottles. It's always exciting to see what's next. I recommend them as a starter stop or an end stop on your wine country journey. read more

Bravuro Cellars - The new Zin is in - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Newberg, Oregon

Saving my 200th Yelp Review for this special place. Bravuro Cellars has 2 locations: a tasting room in Newberg that is quaint and intimate, and it's Vineyard and tasting room in Amity, which is charming and welcoming. I prefer the vineyard location, which is open weekends only (see website for details). Sitting on their patio facing the vineyard on a sunny day is breathtaking. Note: this place is for red wine lovers. Specifically big bold red wines. I love coming here after tasting Pinots, because the richer deeper flavors are more to my liking. I suggest packing a small picnic and making an afternoon of it: taste the flight of big bold reds, and when you've picked your favorite, share a bottle with friends over a nosh. Look out over the vineyard, and toast to good times and good friends. read more

I love this tasting room so much I returned and brought another friend with me. For some reason it wasn't as cold as I remembered it, which was great because I had come prepared with a light jacket only to forget it in the car which was parked several blocks away. I was super happy to see that Mike was working again that day. I was surprised that he remembered me and thought that was really nice. He expertly guided us through the tasting flight as we chatted about an upcoming cruise through the Bordeaux region of France that we all agreed sounded like a ton of fun. We didn't sip on any Bordeaux, but their Tempranillo is fantastic. I also really enjoyed the Best in Show which is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Petite Sirah. Both very smooth and drinkable on their own. I know I said in my last review that I was going to join their really awesome wine club on my next visit. That didn't happen. I'm saving my money to go on the Bordeaux cruise. 2021 - Review # 18 read more

Although you do not get a view while you taste, the wine makes up for it! If you like deep bold red wines, Bravuro is the place for you. Friendly staff, delicious wine and reasonable prices! read more

Amazing service and ambiance! The lady pouring wine was great and made our experience so good! We are visiting from out of town and appreciated her knowledge of the area! Our group had so much fun! Highly recommend checking it out! read more

Our last stop after a full weekend of wine tasting.... we were full up on snooty wineries with $75 pinots, and Bravura was a breath if fresh air! It didnt have breathtaking vineyards to look at, but a stable of amazing wines. Steve knows his wine and opened up a soon-to-be Bordeaux that blew our socks off. Definitely add this to the list! read more

Bold and daring reds. The port was delightfully spectacular. One of the best ports I have ever tasted. Simply divine and heavenly. Owners were extremely kind and friendly. Loved the festive holiday touches and seeing them decanter the wines. A fantastic new addition to Newburg. Great place for deviously delicious wines that will satisfy your palette. Please stop in for a tasting. You are in for a treat. read more

Steve, Luci, Mike and others in the team are very gracious hosts! Some professors at Reed College in Portland recommended them for Big Bold Reds and we have been so pleased! It is easy to pick up wines in Newberg in their nice tasting room and a special treat to go to their beautiful winery in Amity with gorgeous views overlooking their grapevines and home with a pond with koi and many areas to sit comfortably. We highly recommend them! read more

Not pretentious like some of the other local wineries that take themselves so seriously - we really enjoyed our easy relaxed and friendly visit. So much so that we joined their wine club. Steve is really friendly and great company. Always responds quickly when we email or have questions. I love the Cab Franc and my husband the Tempranillo. read more

Talk about service and a fun place to go taste some wine and hang out. These are big reds, and they are fantastic! Well worth the drive to Newberg! The service is exceptional, Steve is always happy to see and talk with you! read more

Bravuro Cellars - Big bold reds, yeah baby! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Newberg, Oregon

If you would like something different, something bolder to round out Oregon Pinots while hanging in the willamette valley - Bravura is a MUST. My favorite winery of the trip - bigger California style wines. The tasting room is unpretentious and simple - but the staff were very well informed and really well dressed:) Join the club! read more

Had a nice tasting of the big bold reds! One of the few open places on the day after Christmas. Fun to see Lodi grapes on the wine list. read more

Great wine shop! Owner is super friendly. Tasting isn't very expensive, 10 bucks. Some of his grapes are from CA, close to home for me. He makes more then just a Pinot! Would come back. read more

Love this quaint downtown Newberg tasting room. Super friendly owners and an overall great selection of Zins, Sirahs, and Cabs!!! Went wine tasting through Yamhill County with my friend, Shannon, and ended up at BraVura for some best wines of the day for sure!!! read more

Bold reds? Check! What can I say, I liked the wine so much, I joined the club after tasting the 2nd of a flight of 5 wines. There have been other releases since then, and I have liked them all. If you like bold reds, this is a must visit tasting room. They are friendly and knowledgable, and did I mention the wines are amazing? read more

My husband and I had never been to a winery where we could truthfully say we enjoyed every single tasting until today. We both enjoy red wine, and all of Bravura's wines were amazing. I would highly recommend stopping by to experience not only the wine, but the super hospitality of the owners. We are happy that we decided to go here as part of our 1st wedding anniversary celebration, and can't wait to go back again. read more

Ever since our friends brought us to meet Steve and his beautiful wines, we have been in heaven! His club is easy to join, and we always end up purchasing more than our commitment, because we want to build our cellar, and enjoy his wines now! Steve is super easy to talk to, and makes his wines easily approachable. His wine pick up parties for club members are always generous with food, and he has great stories about his wine making! Another plus? He is one of the only tasting rooms open AFTER 5....so, you can always add Bravura to your outing at the end, and it will be a strong finish! Go check it out! You won't be disappointed! read more

This is our favorite, local winery. We signed up for the club after/during our first visit - they are that good. We cannot wait for each new addition to the wonderful big, bold, reds that Steve and Luci share with us. Being transplants from Central Washington, where Wahluke slope fruit is everywhere, we really appreciate what is happening at Bravura Cellars! If you want an addition to your local Oregon pinot noir's, this is the place. 100% recommended - you won't be disappointed! read more

Amazing big reds! Bravura is a great change from many of the watered down Pinots in the area. Wonderful wines and very knowledgeable owner. Must visit! read more

My husband and I love to visit even if driving through town. We are members and went to our first event last night. It was gorgeous, touching, and we met a lot of great people. We look forward to future events while enjoying top notch wine, exceptional food, and meeting new friends. Stop by if you like bold/ hearty wines as a much needed break from Pinot Noir. read more

Bravura is a great alternative from the Pinot Noir scene in Newberg/Dundee. Their big reds are delicious, and Steve is a great guide to help you navigate his well priced options. Do yourself a favor, and pick up a bottle or two before your steak dinner! read more

BraVura is the best for big bold reds in the Willamette Valley. Steve is a friendly guy and loves to chat about his wines. The wine club is easy to be part of and you get to pick the wines you want. Go visit, you won't be disappointed read more

We first visited Bravura and met Steve when we saw the (first) Big Bold Reds sign around Newberg. Once we tasted their El Matador red blend, we were hooked from there. Since then we have truly appreciated every one of their wines, not to mention their genuine hospitality when we come by to taste new ones. The biggest draw to Steve and Bravura Cellars was the fact that they don't do what the masses in our valley do...Pinot Noir. Don't get me wrong, we like a good Pinot Noir on rare occasion but we like Bravura because they don't make a bad wine. None are average, none are watery and bland, none are second rate. If you like the full array of wines, it's okay to have more than one wine club membership. Just know that you're doing yourself a great service by having one that specializes in the more sought after choice to wine drinkers--big bold reds. read more

Ordered a bottle of the 2008 Cabernet. It was a very fine drink! Nice deep flavor, and very good finish! I will be ordering again soon! Thanks again... read more

Excellent wine and outstanding customer service. Steve is an awesome host and very knowledgeable about not only Bravura wines, but other local and California vineyards. If you like red wine that is not Oregon Pinot, you need to stop here. read more

Had an excellent experience chatting with the owner and sampling his delicious red wines. To echo the other comments, Steve is a wonderful host, and we appreciated the overall unpretentious vibe. read more

My wife and I love Bravuro! Steve is amazing, he's very passionate about wine and you can tell. The wine is an amazing price for how good it is and we love stopping in for a taste or to pick up our shipment, the atmosphere is great. Get the crackers they have retailed, they are delicious. read more

I was impressed by all the 5 star Yelp reviews and thought I'd bring my out of town guests to this so called "local" winery. Big mistake. Firstly, they don't make any of their own wines - they simply rebottle other ordinary California brands and jack up the price. The white haired man behind the counter turned arrogant and defensive when I asked them about their vineyards. With so many excellent, legitimate wineries just down the road in the Willamette Valley, don't waste your time and money here drinking cheap wine with a bad vibe. read more

Really fantastic experience tasting at Bravura just off 99W downtown Newberg. Steve is a top notch host and terrific at guiding less experienced wine drinkers through their outstanding Reds. read more

Great find! After being ignored at another local tasting room, happened upon Bravuro. Glad we did! Great wines, great owner. Relaxing and informative. With our daughter starting school at George Fox tomorrow, this will be a regular stop from now on. read more

We visited the tasting room in Newberg last weekend, and brought a couple bottles home. I shared them with my local wine group last night along with a couple other brands, and everyone LOVED the Bravura! The 2013 Lodi Zin got rave reviews from our big red fans, and absolutely everyone couldn't get enough of the Serrato Blend... guess you will see me soon to get some more! Thanks for the excellent wine! read more

This place is awesome! So good to see a tasting room with something other than Pinot. Amazing Zinfandel and a fun experience all around. Will definitely be back!!! read more

Amazing owner Steve. Very cool guy. Very relaxed place to learn about wine and ask questions. Had a really good time.

We just stopped in on thanksgiving on a whim and we're met so warmly by the owners and their dog Luna. As one of the only (if not the only) places to try big bold reds in the area we were just happy they'd have the selection, but we were thrilled with the tasting. Likely the best Cab and Port we've had to date. Definitely swing by and try something different in the area. You won't be disappointed. :) read more

Great place for a wine tasting - especially if you are looking for a break to the traditional Oregon wines - the owner is from Newberg originally but makes only big California reds and brings them back home - a great way to break up the Pinot Pinot Pinot monotony that comes with visiting the Willamette Valley - he bottles a few reds that are unique - bought my first bottle of Cinsault here and loved it read more
