Featured Wineries
These are only a few of the wineries that we visit. We visit these and many others.
I'm proud to present the following wineries as Featured Wineries. What does that mean? It means many things. I've been tasting Oregon's wines for many years now. I believe that a winery not only has to have good wine, but the people and place also make up the experience of wine tasting. I feel that these wineries are excited about what they do and want to share it with you. They have a passion for making wine, and it shows! In my opinion, these are also some of the best wines in this area. They are mainly smaller wineries producing excellent quality wines. I ask that you please support them by purchasing wine at the wineries and also when you get back home. If you don't see a wine at your local wine store, ask for it!
* I feel that Adelsheim is one of the best wineries in Oregon. They have a great variety and excellent quality wines. One of our favorite stops and has been for many years!

This is what the Oregon Wine Scene is all about. They are very small producers so we have to limit the tours we take there. The wine is very good, especially for a young winery, but these guys are making quality wine at reasonable prices and are some of the nicest people out there. If you have never heard of Styring wines, that doesn't surprise me. You will certainly be hearing more of them as time goes on though. Consistently one of our favorite stops.
At Styring Vineyards, we believe in crafting artisan wines that we enjoy
drinking. This is typified by our small case production from limited
varietals that love the Willamette Valley of Oregon as much as we do. We
produce dry, flavorful whites; complex, structured reds; and fruity,
balanced dessert wines. Each hand-crafted wine is wonderful to enjoy
immediately or, when carefully cellared, robust enough for the best
collections. Specializing in Pinot Noir and Riesling Varietals, our
wines are available by the bottle, case, or gift set. Phone: 503-866-6741 Website: www.styringvineyards.com
Panther Creek wines "which are Oregon's most beautifully packaged, are also among the most concentrated and ageworthy wines now being made in Oregon... Panther Creek has established itself as one of the most consistent, high quality Oregon wineries." - Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate Panther Creek Cellars has been producing top quality wines (primarily Pinot noir) since 1986. Panther Creek's winemaker is Michael Stevenson; our consulting winemaker is Mark Vlossak. We produce a maximum of 7,500 cases annually, about 90 percent of which is Pinot noir. Philosophically, we at Panther Creek are minimal interventionists. We work hard in the vineyards to obtain the best fruit, then expend our best efforts to coax from the fruit all it can give, without resorting to filtering, fining or additives.

We came to the world of wine from many different backgrounds: outdoor recreation, environmental policy, the music industry, and other professions. Like other Pinot fanatics, we love what we do, and believe that our wines reflect our dedication to our craft. We make Pinot noir in Oregon because we love this region, and the way the grape's subtlety, depth of flavor, and complex textures are revealed here. Our Pinot noirs are highly individualistic wines that speak clearly of their origins. Because we choose to let the land make our wines as much as possible, we do not produce a homogeneous "style," and you will find that our wines differ from vintage to vintage.

Cana’s
Feast Winery, formerly known as Cuneo Cellars, crafts distinctive
Northwest red wines with a focus on Italian varieties. Our wines are
created from the highest quality grapes grown in selected vineyards
throughout the Northwest. These superb grapes become the complex and
richly balanced red wines Cana’s Feast Winery is proud to produce.
Cana’s Feast Winery embodies Italian family hospitality. Guests enjoy
intimate dining in our winery where the sweet aromas of red, ripe wine
fill the air. On sunny days, our stone-paved patio and garden piazza are
ideal places for outdoor events and meetings. Here you can enjoy the
spectacular view of the Coast Range while surrounded by the scent of
olive and lemon trees, stone pines and Italian cypresses grown on the
property. Bocce courts beckon to those who want to try an ancient game
played in the Roman Empire.
