You’ve been on a roll lately! We’ve been in MT for a month but are getting ready to head to Walla Walla and then on to Willamette - about 4 days each. We plan to hit Pepperbridge and L’ecole No 41 in Walla Walla, but need to find a few more to visit there - hopefully dog friendly wineries. Same for Willamette - only planned winery there so far is Ayres Family Winery.

Last day of wine tasting in Walla Walla, WA today. Ended up going to Long Shadows, L’Ecole No41, Woodward Canyon, Pepper Bridge, Figgins, Bledsoe Family, and Seven Hills. We did but a bottle of Pirouette at Long Shadows and joined the wine club at Woodward Canyon. All the places we visited had great wine. If you like rosé, try the Grenache rosé from L’ecole. It’s great. ![]() Heading over to Dundee, OR tomorrow for another 4 days of wine tasting, and then over to Florence, OR for some beach time.

Thanks! It’s grown a ton since we were last here 17 years ago. Leonnetti, Woodward Canyon, and L’Ecole No 41 were the first 3 wineries in the very early 80’s. There are about 120 wineries here now. Even when we’re we’re here in 2006, I’d compare Pepper Bridge and L’Ecole No 41 red wines to the high end CA wines. It’s a great region. Horse Heaven Hills up near the Tri-Cities it’s an excellent AVA too. The Columbia and Yakima valleys aren’t as good.

At our RV campground in Oregon wine country and we have Archer Winery right behind us and it’s open until 8 pm. This is going to be trouble!

If you are still in the Willamette, try to get an appointment to Beaux Freres winery. We think it is up there for Pinot noir.
Love your Polar! Mine has been to Mendenhall glacier in Alaska. |
