Wine tasting
Duck Pond Wine Cellar, Dundee, Oregon - Travel Oregon
With over 300 wineries and over 700 vineyards, Oregon is one of the top wine producers in the United States. The Willamette Valley not only is at the same latitude as the Burgundy region in France, but also has similar climate conditions, which are perfect to grow the finicky Pinot Noir grapes. Most wineries are small, family-owned operations that produce only a limited quantity of wines. The best way to experience Oregon wines is a tour through the wine regions with stops at the various tasting rooms in the Willamette Valley, the Rogue and Umpqua Valleys in Southern Oregon and in the Columbia River Gorge.
