We had such a fun and unique experience at Willamette Valley Vineyards in Bend during the Riedel Glassware Experience on Thursday, July 23. Ashley was a fantastic hostess! She shared the history of the Riedel glassware company and explained how the shape of each of the four glasses changes the aroma and flavor of the same wine. It was fascinating to experience the difference firsthand. Ashley was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly patient with our group, even when we got a little chatty and wandered off topic. She made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. The charcuterie board was more than enough for the two of us, and every wine we sampled, from the bubbles to the Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and final bottle of Cabernet, was an excellent selection. This was something completely different from a typical wine tasting, and we really enjoyed it. I already have several friends in mind who I think would love this experience. I hope Willamette Valley Vineyards considers making the Riedel Glassware Experience a regular offering! read more

Beautiful wine tasting room! Enjoyed a flight and some food. We also got a completely rose tasting when we sat down. The food was delicious. The staff was attentive and kept checking on us. The decor and vibe is really beautiful. Makes you feel like you're at a winery. Would be great for a date night or friend get together. A few patio tables outside too. Definitely stop by if you enjoy wine and good food! read more

We were in Bend to visit my son. On our last night there we wanted to have a nice dinner. My husband had the hamburger, my son had the short ribs and I had the salmon on salad. Husband enjoyed his burger, the short ribs had more fat than meat. My dish was not edible. It was overcooked and salted so much that I couldn't eat it. The salad seemed like it was made up with left over greens. I see the great reviews so maybe this was just an off night since it was the night after Christmas. read more

Their goal is to get you buy their wine. Nonetheless this is a classy upscale happy hour to take your visiting your friends and family who wear button downs as casual shirts. Ralph Lauren not Carhartt. Or a date night when your Carhartt husband is willing to drink wine because it is made in Oregon. read more

Chef Cuin rocked the food! So amazing. Ashley did a great job explaining the wines, pairing and the story behind the wines! Thank you for an amazing experience! read more

Jonathan was incredibly knowledgeable and so pleasant and charming. Our burger, salad with salmon and bacon wrapped dates were perfection! We had several good wines but my favorites were the Pinot Gris and Sparkling Rose'. The interior looks modern, clean but really cozy too. Can't wait to go back & try more on their GREAT menu! read more

We had a great experience tonight at WVV in Bend. We have been wine club members for years & have loved going to the tasting room & restaurant near Salem.

I went to an Intro to Wine Tasting event where Ashley was the host. It ended up being very private, in their back room and just the two of us with Ashley. She showed us the many wines, explained in detail all the fun chemistry and science behind the wines. She was very knowledgeable and helped me find the confidence to order wine I know I'll like in the future. read more

We happened to see a wine spring with a chef's menu event at this location and signed up. What a great experience. It was very intimate in a back room at the tasting room. The Sommelier, Ashley, did an amazing job pairing the wines with the chefs selection. The gazpacho was a show stopper and we also loved the halibut ceviche. Thanks to chef Cian, hope I spelled that right It was great meeting the other couples and spending some great time discussing life, wine, and amazing food. read more

We walked in to get a last minute tasting and stayed for their pairing menu. We were so impressed with everything. Their wines were solid, the food was incredible and the service was passionate. We were so impressed with our server who was so excited to share these amazing wines and even suggested a few of their dishes like the gnocchi that was best served alone instead with the chicken and that didn't disappoint. I'm still thinking of trying that dish at home. We sat under a barrel curved booth that just made the total experience amazing for our short time in Bend. Great ambiance. read more

Ashley walked us through an amazing tasting. We tried 4 different wines out of 4 different Riedel glasses. It was a group of guys that didn't know too much about wine and Ashley was the perfect balance of educational and fun to make the experience great! Also, the bread and butter was a perfect compliment. read more

Today my family and I stopped in for alight lunch and wine to enjoy the Willamette space. We had two amazing servers Ashley who greeted and seated us and then we had Brooke who helped us through our experience. They were unfortunately out of salad (we had ordered the salad before knowing they didn't have it ) and rosotto but Brooke was really great on offering other great options. She was wonderful and made for a great experience. We ended up getting the hummus instead which was really great. Everything came out tasty and the service was kind and helpful. Thank you Ashley and Brooke :) read more

I went with my wife to have dinner and we really enjoyed the wine as we have always been a big fan of their vino! The food was ok...you can get better cuisine by their surrounding businesses downtown. The weird part was the dining experience with our server whose name was Angel. She seemed a bit 'off'. She was very strange and I just didnt get good energy from her. As she seemed to be informative about things, her demeanor was not hospitable. We honestly probably won't return and will support Willamette Valley Vineyards by purchasing their wine at the store. read more

We had a great first time at Willamette Valley in Bend. We are owners and have been to all of the other Willamette Valley locations and this was one of the best. Our server Ashley was amazing and very knowledgeable. I'd highly recommend stopping by and having some delicious wine and food! read more

Kristen was very knowledgeable about all the wines and was so fun, kind and patient. We'll definitely be back!

I enjoyed an evening with friends here recently, on their suggestion. I was immediately greeted kindly and shown to our table. I did notice a rather unpleasant odor when I entered that wasn't reminiscent of a winery experience, but then I do have a sensitive sense of smell. The space is small, which is fine, but I found myself wishing we were sitting in the space in the rear which looked a bit more cozy and inviting. The food was great, the wine was as well, and the service was very pleasant, professional, and helpful. This won't be my go-to wine outing, but I may find myself back there again someday. read more

We had a fantastic time with Ashley and Angel as our servers. We came in without a reservation for 10 girls for a bachelorette party and the two of them set the back room up for us and showered us with the best service. read more

This review is about customer service. The Bend location has a barrel table that I had reserved several weeks for a certain date. The day before my reservation I was called and was told that the table had been reserved already. This is not the first time and it has happened several times to my friends as well. What it tells me is unless you are a member, you will be discounted as a person. read more

Ashley took care of us from the moment we walked in, and we were kind of high maintenance. she happily accommodated our requests and was great at letting us know when she couldn't. Beautiful setting, delicious wines and... the butternut squash soup was amazing read more

This was our first visit to the WVV Bend location. It was amazing. The food selections were wonderful and just about something for everyone. The wine tastings were very good and the two main options covered some wonderful wines. The very best though, was the service. The service was first rate. They had also just started some live music when we were there and that was icing on the cake. If you get a chance, check them out. You won't be disappointed!! read more

My mom, sister and I stopped in for an early tasting. I've been to several of the tasting rooms and this one is by far my favorite. It is a warm inviting space with a cozy fireplace table. We were greeted by Ashley who was also our waitress. She was so inviting and delightful. Her knowledge of the wines they carry was extensive and she was very enthusiastic. It was a perfect winter time stop with a picturesque setting. Thank you so much Ashley for your exceptional service. We will for sure be back when my case of wine runs out. read more
