Had a wonderful time hanging on the patio on the sun drinking rosé! Decor inside is super cute, food and wine were great, but the highlight was our incredible hostess Natalie! She made the whole experience so much fun and was very accommodating!

Love the new location! It's bright, colorful, spacious with lots of nooks with seating so you can have a more intimate experience. The bar looks out over the river and gorgeous view, in the summer it would be fun to sit there and watch the windsurfers. The patio out front is fabulous with heaters, blankets, a fire pit with lots of seating areas and dog friendly (outside only.) Really appreciate the variety of flights. You can choose all white, all red or two of each. The names of the wines are teasingly scandalous and so much fun! The wines were good, I particularly liked the cab and zin since I prefer bolder reds. Service was friendly and attentive but not in any way pushy. It was our third stop of the day and we didn't purchase any bottles this time, but definitely will be back. They have their own parking lot in the back making it super convenient. Great way to spend the day!

Great wine! I enjoyed the sweeter wines and even bought a membership to their wine club.

Evoke is my favorite winery in downtown HR. A charming space with great wine selections. The Black Label Oh! Orgasmic flight is delicious, give it a try.

Naked Winery is the quintessential millennial wine experience. The wines won't blow you away but Naked doesn't specialize in any certain varietal of wine so you can try a Tempranillo alongside a Pino Gris or sweet(!) gewurztraminer. All the wines are named with sexual innuendos, like Missionary, Oh! Orgasm, and Penetration. Totally risqué and catering towards an open minded clientele who don't take themselves (and their wine) too seriously. They also sell merch so when your friends back home ask you "omg what is naked winery? do you get naked and drink wine?" you can say "yeah sort of". Just kidding, but some of these pieces are definitely a conversation starter. Wines range from $25-$80 a bottle. Clothing merch ranges from $20-$40. Service is good and hosts are hands off for the most part. They let the tasting notes speak for themselves and let you get to drinking, none of that "let me introduce you to your selection tonight" spiel. The tasting room is super cute and they have both the inside and outdoor patio open for socially distanced service. Cool experience. If you're in the area (and can appreciate millennial culture), stop by for an hour or two.

They gave us blankets tho ‍

Dogs aren't welcome inside anymore. Super sad; luckily there was a fire pit available and they gave us some blankets Edited: If you allow dogs in the office, why were we asked to sit outside?

Yes, this place is a little hokey... the names and descriptions on each bottle make you giggle and blush. The tasting experience was a fun and enjoyable. Blew away my expectations. For $15 we received 8 pours plus a bonus pour and a free glass. Our favorite was the Booty Call Blush. We even bought a bottle to take home to enjoy with dinner. Some of their styles are produced in plastic bottles perfect for hiking. I love this alternative style! Our server gave great descriptions of each wine and was very attentive. He also did not pressure us into the wine club.. my wine tasting room pet peave. I would highly recommend a visit and tasting next time you are in Hood River!

Favorite winery of the day (visited four). Appreciate the laid back and friendly staff and the option to choose from 4 tastings with large selection of great wines. Cass was best!

Nice vibe and atmosphere. Bartender was great. Enjoyed the red wine flight and herb almonds.

On a hiking trip at Ancient Lakes WA. Took our vino wine and vino tins. Nice treat at the halfway point.

Great wine, fantastic atmosphere and amazing employees! We went on a hike in Easter Washington called Ancient Lakes. We packed our vino wine and vino tins. What a sweet treat at the halfway point.

We loved our visit to this tasting room! We saw it when driving by and stopped for a taste. We got a wine flight and had some of the most delicious wines! They were quite unique and all were very flavorful! Our server was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the grapes and wines themselves. The patio was very cute and comfy with heaters.

Best tasting of the day!! Cindy was a gem! Made our stay uplifting. The music was great, catering to a younger crowd, very clean and welcoming. Their bubbly was A-1, I ended up purchasing the "Frisky" What was really cool was the names that each wine/sparkling had...all so sexy. For food they had fishes, and dark chocolate. We had the oregon wine passport, so our tasting was free.

Beautiful flowers welcomed us at this winery

Upside down, inside out, right side up - any way you turn it, this wine is fantastic!!!…read more A friend who is a wine club member has been raving about their wine for years, and I finally stopped in for a tasting flight. Every single wine in the flight was good, which is rare. My absolute favorite was the Mourvèdre, a serious red with dark fruit and notes of spice. Complex, yet easily drinkable. Their Mourvèdre blend was also a standout. Upside down Wine is located right on Oak, the main street in Hood River and located right next to the clothing store, Parts and Labour. The name is very subtle over the door so if you aren't intending to go here, you most likely will walk right by. Don't! The very stark, modern interior, which feels a bit sterile, comes alive with warmth from the friendly service and the chatter and laughter of other patrons. You can stand along the long bar, European style, or sit at a high top for two or in comfy chairs in the back. Now that I've had the opportunity to visit the wineries in Hood River and the Gorge multiple times, previous faves no longer hold a candle to some of my new favorites. Could be that my palette has become more refined, who knows? I just know that my top 5 list contains none of my original choices and Upside Down wine is now in the list!

Allison was wonderful, friendly, & knowledgeable about her wines. We did a tasting & had a nice,…read morerelaxing time in the shop.
