Honeywood Winery was a great stop! When I went in I saw a nice wine selection but I was on the hunt…read morefor mead and they indeed did have some. In fact I had an idea they sold it (but don't ask me how and where I got it) so it wasn't really a shot in the dark that they would have it. I got a bottle of the Wild Mead which is more floral and kind of keeps the honey flavor more present. They had plenty of other flavors... berry flavors some I think but this particular one was what I wanted. The service was friendly and I had a nice conversation with the two employees there. The mead itself was wonderful! As I said it is more of a floral flavor with the honey presence at work. Refrigerate it and you got a very refreshing and flavorful beverage to sip with at the end of the day.

I first came across their brand at some tasting rooms on the coast and the Made in Oregon store but this is the first tome going to their headquarters. They do 4 tastings for $10 and have unique varities including some west coast berries like Huckleberry, loganberry and, our favorite of the tasting, Olallieberry. The bottles are also really affordable at around $14. Service was super friendly and great about describing the different flavors.

For a few years now, I've wanted to visit Bjornson but never made the time to do so. Since I was…read morevisiting another winery about a mile away for an event they were having, I had to stop at Bjornson before that. And was I glad I did. They have a stellar selection of both reds and whites. I opted for their standard tasting, which just scratches the surface of the wines that are available from this great, boutique winery. Don't get me wrong, I love the big boys, too, but there is something extra special about going to a smaller winery and enjoying a fantastic wine in an atmosphere that is more intimate. It's like finding a hidden gem next to another gem! What a treat! I was served by Becky, who was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. When I left, I bought a bottle of wine, but since it's a boutique winery and I didn't know if they'd have this other bottle I wanted, I opted for both, which is rare for me (unless I need to purchase 2 bottles to waive the tasting fee).

They have amazing charcuterie and Mezza plates that are really fresh and delicious. The cheese, dips, and chocolate are so divine. The food is fantastic - so even if you don't drink wine or are cutting back, I still highly recommend this winery for food too. Most of the food is either locally sourced or is a higher quality product like the gourmet chocolates.The wine selection is varied, however, it's still good wine. My favorite is the sparkling. You feel like home when you visit. I've been here twice. The first time last year was extremely magical with fabulous service and a beautiful journey. Our second time (in 2026) service was a bit slow and our server seemed a bit put off and tired. However, by the end of our stay she warmed up and we felt more connected and comfortable. I really thought I wrote a review for this place before, but I just don't see it on here. I definitely recommend this place. 5 stars, cheers and sip! Epic patio views that are dog friendly abound here or you can get cozy by the fireplace inside. They host neighborhood events to support charities too. The weekend after our visit, they were planning a "pups and pinot" - meet and greet with neighboring dogs from a close animal shelter. I really wish this place was closer to Portland - Salem peeps got Lucky by having this open near their city off the beaten path. Definitely put this winery on your radar! Such a beautiful summertime favorite.

The area is known for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay so you'll find a lot of those on this area.

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.

We knew we wanted to return and were thrilled to be able to share our recent experience with family members. The wines are incredible (and we have been Wine Club Members since 2018). Our recent visit was absolutely perfect although the weather didn't cooperate for a picnic at the top of one of the mountains amongst the vineyards. We had a lovely and super informative tasting of at least 6 wines and enjoyed a delicious charcuterie board as well. We had been encouraged to bring a picnic and enjoyed that on the beautiful covered terrace while watching the summer rains. Plan ahead and make sure you visit Cristom Vineyards when you are in the Willamette Valley. Reservations recommended!

It is the perfect spot to spend a lazy summer day. Or any day! As you enter the driveway, there is a beautiful iron gate which welcomes you to the long driveway past the pond and up to the gorgeous stone building that houses the tasting room and event space. We were there during the summer and the fragrant roses were in bloom, along with other flowers, adding the perfect pop of color. They have created various seating spots in the shade of trees, either tables or settees and comfy chairs. Maysara considers themselves stewards of the land, and as such, respect the land so it remains for future generations. They are a fully biodynamic and sustainable winery. For example, they grow a variety of medicinal and dynamic flowers & herbs that are turned into compost teas to fertilize and create nutrient rich soil without chemicals or pesticides. The resulting wines are truly a result of nature, combining the Persian vines, rich soil, and climate of the Oregon Coastal Range foothills. We all opted for a flight that started with three whites and finished with three reds. I'm usually a big, bold red fan so was surprised and delighted to fall in love with their Pinot Gris. It was crisp and light, so refreshing on a warm summer anfternoon. I also loved their sparkling rose. actually, I liked every wine we sampled! Each of the wines are named after various Persian legends, and as the wines were poured, we heard the stories of the wine's namesake, and learned about the grapes and process. It was very enjoyable. Maysara is a special place. I can't wait to visit again for more delicious wine and to take in the peaceful space they created.
