Memorial Day (& pre-Memorial Day) Weekends in Wine Country
May 28-30, 2022 & May 21 & 22
Visit favorite or well-known wineries in the Willamette Valley and wineries that are rarely open to the public.
Join us annually for the Post & Pre-Memorial Day Weekend in Wine Country, when wineries and tasting rooms will feature open houses across the Willamette Valley. Take this opportunity to visit some of the region’s small, family-owned wineries rarely open to the public as well as larger wineries and tasting rooms, and leave the planning to us.
This is one of three of the most fun weekends of the year; the mood is happy and infectious. Dozens of usually closed to the public wineries host open houses, and you’re invited to swing by the more than 200 wineries, taste superb wine and chat with local Willamette Valley winemakers!
Allow My Chauffeur to plan your perfect Pre or Post Memorial Day weekend escape.
