We took an all-day wine tour with Carolyn in late December and we're so glad we chose her company. She arrived right on time and had snacks and waters in the car for us. She helped us pick our itinerary for the day and had great info on the region, wineries, history of the area and happily answered all of our (many) questions. She was super nice and we really enjoyed going from winery to winery with her. When a couple wineries didn't work out she had great backup recommendations ready. She also had a great lunch suggestion. Highly recommend taking a wine tour with her if you're planning to visit the region.

This facility covers virtually everything connected to air and space travel, including a host of knowledgeable volunteers eager to explain almost every aspect of the wonderful flying machines on display. Most of the air and spacecraft on display are inside huge buildings, yet many aircraft are displayed outside available to the cost conscious... FREE to look and wander the grounds. Even those wishing to get a peek of the massive Spruce Goose Flying Boat can take a look inside, have lunch or a drink at the inside cafe, browse the gift shop and buy a $6 ticket to view a special movie created on the history of air/space travel. Additionally, there is an enormous indoor water park on site. While it was closed on my visit, there is a 747 aircraft shell sitting atop the roof with water slides exiting the aircraft and dropping through the roof to the water park below. There are activities and unforgettable sights for all ages.
10. Yamhill Valley Vineyards
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 36 reviews
Yamhill Valley Vineyards is the oldest winery in the McMinnville AVA. We grow, produce and bottle all of our own grapes right here at the vineyard. Yamhill Valley Vineyards is located on a 150 acre estate in the rolling foothills of Oregon's Coast Range Mountains, one hour southwest of Portland in the Willamette Valley. The heart of our wine making is dedicated to Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Riesling. We have recently expanded our Chardonnay plantings and plan to release it to the public in the next few years. Since our first vintage in 1983 our wines have consistently won top honors in tastings and judgings across the nation. Our 1983 Pinot Noir was the first place preference in the famous Wine Center in New York City. From our beginning we have been stubbornly dedicated to the pursuit of a character that is distinctively Oregon and distinctively Yamhill Valley. Our goal is to bring forth from this unusual and exciting property the finest possible expression of its intensity, charm and uniqueness.
