three bottles of wine on a wooden table
Kim G.

Loved everything about my visit to Hawkins and will definitely be visiting this winery again. The wines were all very drinkable, meaning they are good with food, but also very good on their own which is what I look for in a wine. Service was friendly, genuine smiles and conversation. The various seating areas are intimate yet still give the sense of being around others and sharing an experience. And if the sun is out, the view of the mountain is spectacular! When you come to the Gorge to go wine tasting, visit Hawkins for a lovely time, sitting in an Adirondack chair or at a picnic table on the grass sipping wine and taking in the beauty. There are a few other wineries to visit while in Underwood so make a day of it!

Very cute! Great location and friendly staff! Sadly I was as DD so I couldn't taste the wine, but my friends said it was delicious and we left with quite a few bottles.

3.5 Stars---Hawkins Cellars has a great view of Mt. Hood and that's about it. The staff were very friendly and their tasting flight pours were generous. The grounds and house were also a great touch with the view we had. I felt as if their prices were too high for the quality of the wines. Out of six flights, I only cared for the Riesling and the Pinot Noir. The Riesling has a price of $28 for non-members and $22.40 for club (they should just round it down to $22) ~eye roll~ . If I were in the area again, I would certainly take my friends there for the view and let them decide on the wine profiles.

Syra red wine

My family and I visited Hawkins Cellars in Hood River over vacation. We really enjoyed the red wine they had to offer as well as the whites. We tried both flights of the red and white wines. I know my reds better than whites but truly enjoyed both. Their Riesling was very refreshing on the hot days (which I usually find too sweet but this one was perfect). Their Syra red was extremely delightful and by far my favorite. The staff was so enjoyable to converse with. We typically had Bruce helping us and he is such a joy to talk to. We highly recommend coming here.

Crisp glass of Viognier. My Hood in the background through the glass. See it?

What an amazing visit we had on the 4 the of July! Excellent service from a knowledgeable young lady (so didn't get her name). Spent lot of time explaining the wines. Love the Viognier and GSM. Would definitely return next time we are in town. The grounds are stunning staring at Mt Hood.

Amazing view from Cloud Cap aka Hawkins Cellars!

What an amazing place! The view the wines! The winemaker! If you are looking for the best in the Columbia River Gorge this is it. We had the amazing good luck to have tbe owner/winemaker Thane Hawkins be our gracious host. He is an extremely talented guy. I will be a lifelong fan of his wines. The view as you can see is absolutely stunning! This place is a must go to!

Definitely my new favorite winery. It's a little bit off the beaten path of the Oregon hood…read morewineries (because it's in WA shhhhh!) but completely worth the drive, just a little bit north of Hood River. Gorgeous scenery, a $20 wine tasting, and the cutest interior with so many plants and eclectic art. Loved bringing my friends here, I'll be back! Love that there is a view of both the Gorge and Mt Hood on a clear day. Reservations recommended for groups.

Loop De Loop is fantastic!!!…read more I stumbled upon Loop De Loop's Four Wind wine while having dinner at Anna's Table (Thank You John Z) in Cannon Beach, OR. Fast forward, we planned a stop at Loop De Loop after hiking Multnomah and Wahkeena Falls. It was one of the best surprises of the whole trip to Oregon. I expected Loop De Loop to be a small, modest vineyard and instead I discovered an absolutely stunning vineyard nestled in the picturesque hills of the Columbia Valley. I opted for the full tasting and I'm so glad I did. I really enjoyed the breadth and diversity of the wine offerings. And the wine is made organically!!! We actually enjoyed the wine and experience at Loop De Loop more than any vineyard we visited in Williamette Valley. We also tried the cheese plate and tinned fish, which were delicious. The venue has indoor and outdoor seating. I love the decor and art throughout the building. Service was really good. I dont recall the name of the young woman with red hair helping us out, but she was fantastic. This place gets pretty busy so I recommend reservations. Definitely check it out! Even if you're in Portland, it's worth the quick trek into Washington.

We visited in Aug 2025…read more For several years I have wanted to visit the Savage Grace vineyard/ winery along the Columbia River, and finally succeeded; we three visited in July 2025. The wines were the star of our experience. WINE: 5.0. The certified wine expert among us could take only 2 bottles back with her to Japan from the 11 WA and OR wineries we visited during our road trip: one of her choices was a Savage Grace Cabernet Franc. SERVICE: 4.5. Michael Savage was the sole server, and thus we were able to talk directly with the winemaker. We appreciated his unpolished explanations about the style of wines he strives for, and about his vineyards and winery. He also pointed us to a great viewpoint a few minutes away. AMBIANCE: 4.5. We sat outside next to some production equipment; somewhat rustic, and with a nice view of the Columbia Gorge.

Our family visited Savage Grace over a month ago. I wanted to take some time to formulate my…read morereview. Let me start by saying the quality of wine and the view are the only reason I gave it a 2 star review. When we arrived we were fully aware of their 2 bottle purchase policy if you do a tasting. Which you should be aware of if visiting. There was a group of 5 of us, 2 who were prepared to purchase at least 4 bottles and do the tasting, 1 who doesn't drink and wanted to see the views, and 2 designated drivers for 2 cars. First the lady asked if we had reservations which we did not. The place was nearly empty with just one other couple. She then proceeded to say before we start you let's make sure our winery is a good fit for you and then began to interrogate us about those not drinking. She tried to push smaller pours with what they call a designated driver plan for the designated drivers which we declined. Still not seated through an interrogation of our intentions, she pushed the DD plan on our 3rd person who said she felt we weren't going to get seated if she didn't accept. The tasting was super slow and took almost 2 hours. We've visited numerous wineries but this is a first where they tried to push alcohol on the designated driver. The condescending way we were greeted and treated is not worth the ok tasting wine and spectacular views. We will not be back with our next winery excursion in the Hood River area.

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.

This micro family run winery turns out some really lovely wines without the large factory or personnel. The Cab Franc Rose was delightful. I even enjoyed the crisp Chardonnay, and I don't typically go for Chardonnay. the reisling was also very nice. A fan of reds, both the Merlot Cab Franc blend and the Cab Franc spoke to me. Deep flavor but still light enough to drink with a variety of meals or on their own. As soon as I tasted them, I knew bottles were coming home with me! When out in this area, near White Salmon, make a point to stop in. Park on the lawn so you don't block the driveway and walk right up to the yellow house. Tastings are in the garage. Several seating areas in the adjacent yard or just stand around the fire pit in the driveway. Adding to the charm are the family dogs and children laughing and playing in the yard.

Watch the door folks!…read more If you want to experience a "micro-winery" in all its glory, find your way to this place! A little funky but very fun people and tastings right in the barrel room. Willow was recommended to us by other winemakers when we asked if there were any wineries in the area that made a Cab Franc. GO TASTE THEIR CAB FRANC! And the wonderful iterations of it. This is definitely a varietal that the wine maker loves, and it shows in his wines.
