Here's a curated list of where to eat, go wine tasting, shop and more in Oregon's wine country: our personal travel guide to the places we love most in Willamette Valley (including Newberg, Dundee, Carlton, McMinnville and Amity) and Portland metro areas.
Amity
In my opinion, no one in the Willamette Valley understands immersive hospitality better than Antica Terra. A visit here is an investment, but it’s transportive. We’ve tried all the experiences at their old winery in Dundee, and just recently enjoyed the Table in the Trees tasting at their stunning new property in Amity…. [read more]
Dundee
One of the newer estates in the area, and such a gem: a full-time chef, stunning tasting room, vineyard views from every position, and knowledgeable hospitality. Their Wine Pairing Experience provides a full lunch and is fabulous quality for the price – it’s honestly one of the best paired tastings in the valley. … [read more]
Dundee
While as impressive and upscale as his other projects, this newest venture from winemaker Jared Etzel feels much more personal.

Dundee
We’ve been enjoying Wooden Heart pizza and other wood-fired goodness from their food truck for years, so I was beyond excited about the opening of their new brick & mortar restaurant in Dundee! … [read more]
Newberg
Delicious French-inspired options at approachable prices with warm, efficient and friendly hospitality. The wine by the glass list has lots of fun options at equally fun prices, so you can try a few new things. Our go-tos: … [read more]
Newberg
After moving from their first location, Agrivino in Carlton, Chef Dario has set up in downtown Newberg and is serving up absolutely delicious Northern-Italian dishes. Lunch, dinner, and five course tasting menus are served, and they have fun pizza & gnocchi days on Sundays that are … [read more]
Newberg
A dose of the Portland hip vibe right in downtown Newberg, with interesting and creative dishes with a local focus. We’re partial to the casual vibe of the tavern (head around the left side of the building to the back bar) and the Oregon wines on tap.
Dundee
This is the place you will wish you had one of back home. Casual, delicious breakfast and lunches with the wine country farm feel that we love most about this area. Also a great spot to grab provisions for a winery lunch: local cheeses, charcuterie, breads, desserts, wine, cider and beer.
