Destination McMinnville

Excerpts:

"Some of the most interesting wines of the McMinnville AVA are not found on retail shelves. Visiting the tasting rooms allows guests to get a better understanding of the style of each winery."

"Even the most seasoned palate can use a break. ... An eclectic array of restaurants is available or pack a picnic at Harvest Fresh Grocery and Deli. Rooftop dining at the historic McMenamins Hotel Oregon offers views of the town which is especially nice at sunset."

"McMinnville is an easy 40 miles from Portland and less than an hour from the coast. Whether a destination or a stop along the way, plan to visit again and again."
