Food & wine travel, Oregon wine country lodging
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.
Newberg
An alternate option for a day of wine tasting: biking instead of driving! Wine de Roads will equip and guide you on a view-filled bicycle tour of three wineries with a picnic lunch included. A fun, active way to experience the valley with experienced guides.

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]
