Cliff Creek Cellars


Inside the tasting room. Polly, Brent and Michael mingle with the other guests, and buy a bottle of Cabernet.


A perfect little patio on a quiet side street of Carlton. A nice spot for a snack.


Cabernet, salami, gherkins, raspberries and no time limit. A perfect Sunday afternoon.

Canas Feast Winery

Congratulations to Canas Feast: Our first winery on the One Ounce Pour blog.

Bocce Ball!!! They have tournaments too.


And viola...the one ounce pour just happened. Six times.

Our tasting room guru, JJ. He was delightful.

Punch downs!


The inaugural day included the Peterson's and the Roger's. A good time was had by all.

The Project and 173 Wineries. I counted.

One day you wake up and realize what you have known for a long time. Where you live is BEAUTIFUL and (gasp) it's also full of amazing wineries.

Tasting is something that we always say we will do more of, and every so often we do get in some good days. Now it's become intentional. No winery shall be left unnoticed.

With the rate of new wineries popping up, I'm certain the number 173 will grow and change. However, as of today, October 9, 2010, it stands at 173.

The goal is to celebrate each winery for it's uniqueness. To display a local's thoughts, but most certainly not to critique it. The world is far to critical as it is.

Join us as we meander through the back roads of Carlton, Dundee, McMinnville and the AVA's of the Willamette Valley.

Willamette Wines showcases 173 wineries. You can see them all listed alphabetically here.
