The vineyard owners in the show are so humble and sincere and that makes Oregon wines interesting.

I love Oregon so much! I’m a farm girl from eastern Oregon. I wish the agricultural industry on that side of the state had taken on the solidarity that the wine producers in the west has done.

Terrific! It's so nice to see people working together!

The red clay in Yamhill county is so clean and pure you can use it for spa treatments.

Growing myself a grape vine in my yard here in Oregon. The animals and I just love the grapes. They're delicious and so is the wine and I'm not even a fan of any wine other than icewine.

Love Oregon Pinots, a 2012 St. Innocent Temperance Hill Pinot Noir was a game changer for me. Now 10 Vintages later I love the Sub Ava’s of Eola- Amity Hills, Ribbon Ridge, McMinville and The Freedom Hill Site. Dark Black & Blue Fruited Pinots with a little mid-palate weight and an element of spice as well. 🍷💕

Oregon wine. Some of the finest in the world.

The discussion of Willamette Valley 'terroir' harks to geological speculation of Ice-Age floods which theoretically carried soils from the Spokane, WA 'scab-lands' and deposited them at various times and various locations.

I really love all your videos. Fantastic!!!

[@trentgay3437]

Now I want to start a Vinyard. But I already sold the farm lol.

[@Robrites]

This was quite well done. Thank You.

[@aileensteele7298]

Very well done video. Also it’s interesting to see the second generation carrying on the family vision.

[@jamescrisler4357]

*In Vino Veritas. Thanks I wish there would be more Oregon Pinot Noir available here Bangkok, Thailand*

[@DM-wp9vq]

We'll send you some. Just check out the websites of Oregon Vineyards. I highly recommend Erath, Willamette Valley Vinyards, Argyle, Eyrie, Sokol Blosser, & Ponzi. They're all great in their own way though!

[@wild-radio7373]

Fantastic!♡ 👍

Compran pintura al oleo motivos vinos?

[@danabe3220]

Still a lot of poverty in the valley. You will see that on your wine tour.

[@Maureto40]

Prohibition killed americas wine culture

[@ManuelMartinez-zq3vq]

Great know farm workers need money to live. No labor no capital share not lilke nazi southern ca.

[@fabiodeoliveiraribeiro1602]

A guy who started growing grapes in the 1970s says here that Oregon produced the first Pinot Noir in the new world. This makes me laugh. Pinot Noir was introduced to Brazil over 70 years ago and Brazilian wines are obviously better than American ones. 😂😂😂

Dull people today.
