We loved this wine tour! Sean was an excellent host with a lot of knowledge about the area and the wines. He was very professional, personable, and courteous. We went to three very different wineries which was a great way to introduce us to the Willamette Valley. The van was spacious and comfortable and left exactly on time. We had a small group of seven and had a great time getting to know each other as we learned about the different wines that were offered. We never felt rushed and, for the most part, the staff at the wineries were very friendly and happy to see us and tell us about their wines. (Loved Dave at Tresori!) It was a beautiful day and it was great that we could sit outside, taste wine, and ask questions. I learned so much!
I only have two issues, neither of which cause me to lower my rating. The staff at our third winery - Torii Mor - seemed very indifferent and did not tell us much about the wine or the winery. We had expected a tea or coffee service there which did not happen. But it was a beautiful setting with some lovely wines.
At the end of the tour, as we began to talk about the logistics of getting back to our hotels/cars with a heavy box of wine, Sean offered to take us to our hotels. While having a single meeting place to begin the tour makes sense, I think hotel drop-off (within reason) should be part of the service - not done as a favor - when you purchase wine.
Overall, I definitely recommend this tour!
