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!

I did a wine flight and my boyfriend did one of the wine and soft serve sundaes. This was such a cool and unique offering and the flavors actually paired so well together! The space is really vibey- lots of photo opps and cool art. We were tucked away in our own little couch area and it felt like we were at a cool club or something. Very hip, trendy, but still classic and lovely wines. The staff was top notch, super friendly and helpful. I felt like me and the servers were all besties by the time I left and they were so kind and accommodating. I can't wait to come back!

Most of the tastes could also be bought as a glass for $13. Loved the artwork displayed and it was generally a causal and chill place.

Mind you, this was the day before thanksgiving, the winery was completely empty, and they have a huge field with tables. We weren't allowed to have a tasting, buy a bottle and sit outside, or even stay on the property. This was so hugely disappointed. At least we got a recommendation to go to a better, more welcoming winery (Phelps Creek). Having worked in the industry, I've never had my children turned away especially in an accommodating type of location.

It's also very kid- and dog-friendly, which made the visit even more enjoyable since my daughter had her dogs. If you go, definitely try a burger or sandwich paired with a cider flight--it's the perfect combo! Can't wait to go back.
