4. Red Lily Vineyards
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 112 reviews
Red Lily Vineyards is committed to a single goal -- producing the finest Spanish-inspired wines possible. We fell in love with Spanish wines years ago, particularly Tempranillo and its brooding, earthy character, and chose to make these wines our focus. Red Lily Vineyards is named principally for Bolander's Lily, a rare species of red lily found in the neighboring Siskiyou Mountains. However, it also has another, more special meaning. Our daughter is named Lily and among her many, incredible attributes, she shares our love of wine.

Found this place while driving through from Crater lake to Eureka, although needed a slight deviation to get there. Benefit was it was open by 11 and didn't require reservations during the Covid 19 Pandemic. So glad we found it, very cute setting near the river. They gave us the wines in test tubes and we bought a boxed lunch then headed down to the tables alongside the river. Wines were very good Spanish stye, boxed sandwich was good as well!

My husband grew up in Applegate and we had our wedding in Jacksonville. We love Herb Quady the vitner and wine maker and love quady north wine. This last visit, we tasted roses, had a couple of glasses of pistoletta and brought a box of sushi with us from the sushi shop up the street. We were well taken care of and felt safe. She ran the whole place by herself and did great. We drink lots of Herb’s wine.
7. Cowhorn Vineyard

Reviewed By 107JohnM107
Cowhorn Winery is a megahit boutique winery in a lovely Applegate Valley setting off-the-beaten-path outside historic Jacksonville (thank goodness for the state's blue directional signs with exact mileage!). Also exemplary is Cowhorn's dedication to the environment with biodynamic principles and all-solar power. The engaging female staff in the tasting room can talk fine wines with the best of such folks, but they also entertain any and all questions about the winery's principles and what exactly they mean on the ground and in the vineyards. So visiting Cowhorn is not only a chance to taste a stellar lineup of wines, ones attracting national notice, but it also provides a chance to learn something more along the way. This is a remarkable place well worth seeking out. Just follow the blue signs....
8. LongSword Vineyard
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 20 reviews
Nestled in the heart of the Applegate Valley, LongSword Vineyard features ten acres of mature Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines, lovingly cared for by vintner and owner Matthew Sorensen. Over the past 15 years, Matt has painstakingly crafted a repertoire of wines that are as unique and complex as they are approachable and enjoyable. All LongSword wines are creative, small-batch releases, so the wines and varietals offered change frequently. Guests of LongSword Vineyard can enjoy their wine in the tasting room or on the shaded patio, both of which feature stunning panoramic views of the surrounding Cascade, Coastal, Siskiyou mountain ranges. Guests might also get the chance to meet some of the many farm animals that call LongSword home--over 40 Plymouth Barred Rock chickens, four Pilgrim geese, and three Baby Doll Southdown sheep aptly named Einstein, Newton, and Hawking.

Founded by Frank and Ann Wisnovsky, Valley View first made wine in 1976. Using fruit from his Applegate Valley estate planted in 1972, Wisnovsky made Bordeaux varietals up until his death in 1980 when Valley View operations were passed on to Ann and sons. The winery, celebrating its 44th anniversary is now owned and operated by sons Mark and Michael Wisnovsky. Wines have been made by UC Davis trained enologist John F. Guerrero since 1985. Our tasting room is open daily from 11 to 5. We offer a wine tasting flight for $8, refundable with 2 bottle purchase. All of the wines from the flight are available by the glass as well. We have several outside tables (food not available, outside food welcome). There is a cafe just up the street with sandwiches, burgers, etc. Guests are welcome to enjoy a bottle of wine on the patio. Our tasting room has lots of wine related gift items, including clothing, wine growlers, wine tumblers, picnic bags, cork hats and purses, and much more.
