Oregon Wine Country
Why Oregon
From the rolling vineyards of the Willamette Valley to the lush and dramatic coastline, our Oregon is full of exclusive tastings at top wineries, meet-ups with local vintners and winemakers, plus a night or two of magic on the Oregon Coast. Come to the Pacific Wonderland and appreciate it as only a true Oregonian could.
Moments That Matter
Private access and personal touches: top local chefs preparing your feast celebrating farm-to-table craftsmanship, and in-depth private tours by some of Oregon's top winemakers. There is no shortage of exceptional cuisine and premium pinots, and you'll experience some of the region's most notable, from the country to the coast, with stops along the way to take in the forests, mountains and Pacific Ocean coastline.
Your Private Experience
Who It’s For
For lovers of food and wine, and anybody who loves celebrating heritage, craftsmanship and the art of fine wine.
When to Travel
Mid-May to September the weather is warm and mild. October is harvest season, with full autumn colors and cooler temperatures.
Make It Yours
Add a few nights in Portland, explore deeper in wine country, or add a few days on the coast—the choice is yours.
Day by Day
Although the focus of our trip is wine, there are so many opportunities to delve deeper into cuisine, art or craft. Here are our recommendations:
Where We Sleep
The heart and soul of wine country and a cozy beachfront resort: Our boutique hotels reflect the beauty and spirit of Oregon
McMinnville
An intimate stay on the doorstep of wine country, filled with local artwork and brands throughout its spacious modern rooms. Every angle is carefully curated—down to the Pendleton wool bathrobes you’ll never want to take off. Enjoy Oregon luxury in its purest form.
Cannon Beach
Wake up to the gentle rhythms of the Pacific Ocean, with sweeping views of iconic Haystack Rock. You’re steps away from a sandy coastline and the local shops and restaurants that make Cannon Beach a go-to for any true Portlander. If the beach somehow isn’t relaxing enough, the on-site massages and sauna will be.
People Love MO/AD's Oregon
I have such an appreciation now of Oregon's wines and beauty. The food was spectacular, you made everything so easy.
We wanted an 'insider' experience, which is exactly what you delivered.
I enjoyed the entire experience: the destination, the curated itinerary and pace, and, of course, the wine and food.
