Wines are very nice and our wine educator was excellent. The location draws a lot of walk-ins but we never felt crowded or neglected. Each tasting is waived with a $100 purchase. We enjoyed the wine and therefore purchased $200+ to have the fees waived. The owner and winemaker Ken Wright has years of experience in the industry. He buys excellent fruit and in turn produces excellent wine. Definitely worth a visit when in Carlton or nearby.

This was an odd experience. I had reserved a tasting with J'Aime a month or so ahead of time--so as…read morea visitor from the midwest, I had put it into my itinerary. The night before, I emailed to confirm--only to get, the next morning, a text from J'Aime saying that I had never followed through. We ended up talking on the phone, and this was so very weird for me because I was actually looking at the email I had sent while she was aggressively arguing that I hadn't sent it. As things developed, she conceded that she missed it (but didn't apologize for gaslighting me), and agreed--somewhat reluctantly--to meet me, as long as I could get there earlier. I got there as fast as I could, maybe 40 minutes ahead of schedule. Then, I was given a very fast tour where I was told to not ask questions, to not speak at all, to just listen to her "set piece." It's not that the "set piece" wasn't interesting--it was, in a way. But 1/3 of it was stuff I already knew, from traveling the area for a couple weeks, and 1/3 of it was stuff she presented so quickly--and clearly not wanting me to ask questions--that I couldn't fully grasp it, as I had wished. The other 1/3 was useful. At the winery itself, the wine was fine, I liked it. There was nothing so special that I felt the need to join a membership, but I did take a bottle of wine back to my Airbnb with me. And to J'Amie's credit, she did make sure that I was fully recompensated for both the tour and the tasting. This was a learning/studying trip for me. I'm a former professor; studying wine is my retirement hobby. To shut "students" down from asking questions is inimical to real learning, so I was very disappointed in this. This was one of two wineries in Oregon who insisted on forced listening, rather than engaging.

When we got there, the place is very charming. The backyard is huge. There are so many outdoor tables. The service was very friendly. We felt that we were so lucky to find this place.

I haven't been to the new location of 4 Graces that is now over three years old. . The tasting room is gorgeous, but we chose to sit outside and soak in the stunning views of the vines and the valley. The tasting menu includes Chardonay, Rose and Pinots. Excellent examples of varietals that are popular in our area. The wait staff , who has worked at the location since it's opening, was friendly and knowledgeable. There are many fine wineries surrounding the property and I would recommend making a day of this area in Dundee. Bring you dogs, the will love it too!

Desiree could not have been more welcoming... from personalizing our tasting menu for a birthday, to her generosity, to her personability. Not to mention, every, single wine her husband Michael/winemaker put into a bottle was outstanding. There wasn't a wine I didn't enjoy and I'll admit, I tend to be picky with my wines. I also appreciated not feeling rushed. If you love solid Oregon wines, great conversation, and superior customer service, definitely give them a shot. Thank you, Team Lundeen, for a memorable experience and delicious wines. Looking forward to our first "sparkling" pickup!

My wife and I saw a two-piece band setting up for their performance through the window, and decided to pop in for a glass (or two) and some live entertainment. We were warmly welcomed into this classy (seeminly family run) little space, ordered a chardonnay (I didn't catch the name), Rose of Tempranillo (which my wife liked so much, she ordered one for herself afterward), and the Gewurstraminer (which ended up being my favorite). All the while, we were engaged and entertained by the two members of the band, who were amused by our toddler's sons utter fascination with them and their music. Big thanks to both of them, and the owners of Pinot Vista, for allowing and taking pleasure in our son's wanderings and exploration! He was enraptured! Such a relaxing environment, couple with some wonderful wine, beautiful music, and spending time with family without any responsibilities or expectations, is the perfect way to spend a Saturday evening, and I can't imagine many better places in McMinnville than here at Pinot Vista! We will definitely be back, the next time we find ourselves in town.

For a nonlocal, this proved an overwhelming road to go down trying to decide where to stop, but I must say, I couldn't be happier with our choice in Cristom Vineyards. From the moment we walked in the staff greeted us with the type of welcoming spirit that made us feel like old friends. We got their 5 wine tasting that included a pinot gris, 3 pinot noir's and ending with a chardonnay. Each wine was as beautiful as the view from their outdoor patio looking out to Mount Jefferson. If you're looking for a winery that truly encapsulates what it's like to be in Oregon, look no further.

It is clear they have a passion for wine and the winemaking process. We learned about the effects of the 2020 fires on the wines and were able to taste a Pinot from that year for comparison with the years just before.

We were the only people at the winery so we were able to ask lots of questions and learned a lot. We enjoyed ourselves so much we ordered a case to be shipped to our house.

Our visit to Stangeland Vineyards and Winery was one of the nicest times I have had in a tasting room in a long time. The Staff and vineyard owner were friendly, welcoming, patient, informative and attentive (Thank You, Sierra!). The local wines were very good. The cost of the tastings was reasonable ... $10 per person for five, $15 per person for ten. I recommend taking the time to sit on the porch, relax, have a glass of wine, and admire the spectacular view of the Willamette Valley. Four Stars.
