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.
Dundee
For those looking to connect with the history of wine production in the Willamette Valley, Stoller always has a place on our list. A former turkey farm, they have deep local roots, lovely wines, a stunner of a modern tasting room (LEED certified)… [read more]
Carlton
One of the best views you’ll find in the valley, along with some of the most beautiful wines, and a truly stunning biodynamic estate. They have a cozy fireplace and host some of the best can’t-miss events.
Newberg
To-die-for delicious wines (especially the rosé and Gamay, my favorites), a beautiful barn-turned-tasting room, and a really fun family & team making it all happen: Hazelfern is one of our absolute favorite places to visit, and always… [read more]

McMinnville
Fresh and delicious latin-american cuisine on Third Street. We love the tacos, taquitos, and pollo en aji (for dinner). They’re also now serving breakfast, which is much needed on Third Street! Indoor and outdoor seating, family-friendly vibe.
McMinnville
An extensive tapas/small plates menu and a great wine list with an upscale but not stuffy atmosphere. The happy hour (at the bar only) is a great bet for pre-dinner bites or an early dinner. Our favorite dishes: coffee-rubbed steak, … [read more]
Newberg
If you’re a craft beer lover, this place can’t be missed. Wood-aged, wild yeast, farmhouse style beers made in an old wooden barn on a working family farm in Newberg. Seating is outside in their charming beer garden, but they have cover and heaters… [read more]
