Utopia Vineyards and Winery Newberg Oregon

Diane and I visited the Oregon wine country last weekend. Our favorite winery was Utopia on Ribbon Ridge near Newberg. With a new tasting room, this small winery is a 10. Try the new Estate Reserve 2009 Pinot noir. We of course had to join their wine club. 17445 NE Ribbon Ridge Road, Newberg. Say hi two their two friendly dogs William and Harry for us.

Try the Painted Lady restaurant in Newberg after your tasting. !!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was covered with jungle overgrowth.
