Willamette Valley
The Willamette Valley Wine Country spans an area of 150 miles by 60 miles. Numerous excursions to Oregon Wine Country and various experiences each time are assured by the region's nearly 700 diverse wineries.
Although Forest Grove is only a short drive from Portland, the area's verdant farmland and vineyards give the impression that you are far from the city. Here, the David Hill Vineyard and Winery, housed in a more than 100-year-old farmhouse, and Sake One, one of the nation's only sake distilleries, are standout sampling establishments.
The small town of Dayton is home to some of Oregon's top tasting rooms. Here, you may enjoy stunning views and excellent wine from Adelsheim Vineyard, a pioneer in sustainable wine, or the extraordinary subterranean wine cave experience at Archery Summit.
The Joel Palmer House, one of Oregon's top eateries, is located in Dayton and specializes in meals made using foraged mushrooms and truffles from the area. Book one of the renovated vintage trailers at The Vintages Trailer Resort, where hip aesthetics mingle with opulent facilities, for a truly unique experience.
