DDO has developed a reputation for developing awesome wines. One of the things we like is that they haven't become snobbish about them. Unlike other wineries, DDO welcomes guests and treats them well. The scenery from the tasting room and the beautiful deck outside is stunning! In my opinion, wine tasting at DDO is a must do!
Currently the wine tasting room offers two menus. One menu includes 2 whites and the other is strictly pinot noirs which are more expensive. The wines are very nice and the lady who poured and explained about the Drouhin wineries was very knowledgeable and helpful. You can also take a tour if you like. The setting of the winery is gorgeous and the history is very interesting if you are interested in wine (and, in particular, pinot noir). A very enjoyable stop. You will love the vistas.
And delightful views. Visited last month with in-laws and were treated like royalty. Tasted wines on the relatively new terrace on a sunny day. Life doesn't get much better!
Loved this place. The view is so fantastic overlooking all of the valley. Lovely patio and a perfect place where France and Oregon meet. The wines were very lovely. I really enjoyed the Rose on the hot day.
This is our favorite pinot noir and as importantly, our favorite tasting room staff. Each member of the Domaine Drouhn crew is knowledgable about the wine, the area attractions, and they care about customers. The new patio has gorgeous views and delicious wines to taste. Perfect!
Staff were the friendliest! Semi-private tour and tasting were great. Nice to experience the French and Oregon wines side by side with explanation. Great quality wines but the current vintage did not live up to our expectations. I would come back again for a different vintage.
We only went to a few wineries and this was on our short list and the panoramic view was wonderful. They encourage people to bring a light picnic lunch to enjoy on the patio and I wish we had done this. The wine was good and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly and of course the wine was good.
We have been members of DDO for many years, and they produce wonderful Pinot Noir & Chardonnay. They frequently feature wines from the "Papa Ship", Maison Joseph Drouhin in Burgundy. Non-pretentious yet informative staff, amazing views, and of course the wine.
Despite being French owned this winery is very American . They treat you well and you feel welcome even if you buy only one bottle of wine. They also offered to pour some of the Drouhin product from France. The views are panoramic here so plan on bringing lunch and enjoying a two hour lunch on the patio. This is one of the most impressive tasting rooms in Oregon.
This is another great vineyard that has taken advantage of its prime location higher up in the Dundee Hills to build a building that lets you enjoy great views of the rows of vineyards and the valley in the distance. There are two tastings that are offered - each $10 for three wines (a Chardonnay, a rose, and a Pinot or three Pinot vintages). Good wines but the price points are high when you get into the reserves.
