A warning: if you have a difficult time saying 'no,' and you insist on going wine tasting, limit the number of wineries you visit. At one bottle per winery (how can you taste all of that wine without purchasing at least one bottle?) and at $15 to $20 a bottle, it adds up quickly.
We bought a bottle of Pinot Noir Blanc (but not too sweet, this one) from Champoeg, Merlot from Henry Estates, and Pinot Noir from Tyee.
By the time we finished visiting wineries, we were in Roseburg, three hours outside of Portland. Amy fell in love with the Umpqua valley.
