It's Sparkling Season in the Willamette Valley!
Oregon’s Willamette Valley is a known and loved destination for wine enthusiasts. Though it was our Pinot Noir that first took the global stage, other wines including Chardonnay and, more recently, Sparkling Wine have stepped into the spotlight.
It's Cellar Season in the Willamette Valley!
The Willamette Valley Cellar Season is one of the best times of year to visit. We highlight barrel tastings and cellar tours, tasting room fireplaces and indoor event spaces, during the winter months. Welcome to Willamette Valley wine country's coziest time of year.

An easy stop while visiting wine country. November 2, 2022, was the 75th anniversary of the only flight of the “Spruce Goose,” the wooden aircraft with a 320-foot wingspan made famous — or infamous — by Howard Hughes. The “flying boat” is now housed here in Oregon, at the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum in McMinnville, and is definitely worth a visit. Put your tray tables up and return your seatbacks to their full and upright positions...
