The Turk and I wanted to explore the pinots of the area and we dedicated two days to this noble endeavor. We stayed at a simple hotel - but it included a heated indoor pool and a big St. Bernard who came to the hotel's front door each morning.

Eyrie Vineyards - because they were the first winery here. But we enjoyed this tasting because we met a couple who live in ... Dunedin FL! In fact, they live in the neighborhood next to ours. What are the chances?!
White Rose Estate - these wines are delicious and expensive. Located in Dundee Hills, we enjoyed every wine from this area.
Lange Estate - We enjoyed these wines and thought they were the best we tasted, for the price. The tasting room has an amazing view of the mountains and sunset. They did not have enough of the wines we particularly liked, so we couldnt ship any home.
Archery Summit - This was another beautiful winery and the only one in Oregon with natural caves.

We enjoyed the food in McMinnville, the town where we stayed. Our first night's dinner came from La Rambla, a Spanish tapas restaurant with remarkable food and service. The Turk enjoyed his seafood stew alot. The next evening, we went to Gem, a creole restaurant for another delicious dinner.
