bigmak Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 So, wasn't there some talk of a wineries tour? I've done some "research" in years past (King Estates, Willamette Valley Vineyards, Ankeny Hill Vineyards, Hauer of the Dauen, etc.). Depending on how the 4th shapes up (maybe a gathering at Vader, WA), we could chart some stops through the Willamette Valley prior to heading east. http://www.winesnw.com/index.html Link to comment
Twisties Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Wrong part of Oregon, hombre! I think the thought was the Columbia River Valley and or Walla Walla area, about 3 hours drive away in WA. The way I heard it, the idea was to charter a van or bus... It's doable if there is interest. Jan Link to comment
doc47 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Good point. I'd recommend Walla Walla, if you've never been there. Some top-grade cabs and meritages are coming out of there. Link to comment
Fightingpiper Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Here's a little article on the record production in Oregon the last few years..... http://www.startribune.com/nation/16741996.html I was a beer snob back in College (early 90's) and worked at a little mom and pop liquor store to pay for my habit. They tried to get me into wine so I could sell it like I could the craft beer. Well I "cut my teeth" on Sokol Blosser Pinot Noir. It was the only wine that I really liked and it was fairly inexpensive at the time at $12-$14 but now I can't get it for anything less than $30 if I can get it at all. I will be touring that vinyard just for nostalgia reasons. Link to comment
