I’m sorry but the worst wine I’ve ever had, particularly the Merlot and Cabernet. My tongue puckered in the acidity. I can tolerate drinkable cheap wine but this was awful and $35 a bottle! I’ve lived in oregon 30 years and finally checked it out.
Who wants to walk thru the door and see spiderwebs? Who wants to walk past windows with spiderwebs? Wines should have been chilled. Presenter seemed to want to be somewhere else. Outdated decor. Seems they forgot about this location now that they are concentrating on Salem. OK We won't be back!
This was a nice older winery without the buzzer and bells. When we walked in there was a counter with plastic divider because of Covic. Tastings were $10 for 5 tastes. There were reds, whites and fruit wines. You picked what you wanted. The server was knowledgeable and friendly. The pours were extremely tiny. You couldn't get a true taste. Decent red wines, but we've had better. No place to sit inside.
I've been to lot of tastings and this has to be the worse. $10.00 for 5 tastes-The owner was talking about the second or third taste, he didn't pour enough wine for 1 taste. 1/2 oz- what a rip-
After a visit to Ecola State Park, my daughter, wife and I stopped by at Nehalem Bay for a tasting. I definitely approve of their policy. They charge $10 per person, but you can try as many of their wines as you like, and they will credit the tasting fee if you buy a bottle. There were probably 15-20 wines spread out between non-grape (fruit) sweet wines, along with some off-dry and dry reds and whites. I probably tried about seven or eight, and ended up buying a bottle of their off-dry Riesling, and their Honey Meade. We then each bought a glass and sat out on their grounds. The grounds are comfortable, and a little scenic. My daughter mentioned her boyfriend would have really liked visiting. Each glass was only $5. This was a really good way to spend an hour or two relaxing.
