I hope I get to go. This sounds fun!
July 21, 2011 at 10:32
Oh! This sounds amazing. I would love to be able to go and enjoy a romantic evening with my husband and celebrate my upcoming birthday.
July 21, 2011 at 10:32
My husband and I love Oregon and the local wines. This would be a real treat for us!
July 21, 2011 at 10:34
Would love to take a special someone out to this event, and expand my horizons with some good local wines!
July 21, 2011 at 10:39
This sounds fabulous and like a much needed break mid-week break!
July 21, 2011 at 10:45
This would be the BEST gift ever! A truly great experience as i havent had a chance to experience something like this before!.my anniversary is the 27th and birthday the 1st also so what perfect timing!
July 21, 2011 at 10:47
A night of local food and wine sounds divine!!!
July 21, 2011 at 10:55
I’ve been meaning to do some wine tasting ever since moving to Oregon and this seems like a great way to try a bunch at once!
July 21, 2011 at 10:56
I’ve never experienced anything like this, and I love Aaron’s music! What a treat this would be!
July 21, 2011 at 10:56
I’ve been wanting to check out Oregon wine country but can never find a designated driver. A shuttle is the perfect solution.
July 21, 2011 at 10:57
would love to win! I need something to spice up my summer.
July 21, 2011 at 11:24
Wine me, dine me…you know the rest=)
July 21, 2011 at 11:27
1.) i’m trying to develop my pallet. 2.) i’m trying to develop the GF’s pallet. 3.) Oregon = beautiful. 4.) repeat step 3.
July 21, 2011 at 11:28
Wine me please!
July 21, 2011 at 11:32
Sounds like a fun thing to do right after work! I love wine!
July 21, 2011 at 11:39
This sounds like a great way to end a day. The best part is almost no overlap in wineries from this and the Best of Oregon Food and Wine Festival. The shuttle is perfect for two people with no designated driver.
July 21, 2011 at 11:46
This would be so much fun with my husband or a girlfriend! I don’t think I’ve sampled wine from any of these vineyards before but would love to.
July 21, 2011 at 12:11
New to PDX, and I’d love to check out the local wines! :)
July 21, 2011 at 12:28
Wine. Perhaps one of the greatest treats to come from the earth. Owe my wife a great present for all of her support at a recent family reunion that I ran. Could think of nothing better than treating her to great wine.
July 21, 2011 at 12:40
oenophile. nuff said?
July 21, 2011 at 12:44
Awesome awesome awesome way to spend a Thursday!
July 21, 2011 at 12:50
I live right in the middle of wine country and have never been to any of the wineries around us. I have been up Breyman Orchards several time but never have had the opportunity to stop at Red Ridge Farms, it’s beautiful. It’s also my husband’s birthday and what a suprise this would be!
July 21, 2011 at 12:55
this sounds fantastic! ¡Salud! sounds like an amazing cause as well.
July 21, 2011 at 13:14
Would be a wonderful way to celebrate the day my boyfriend and I met exactly a year from the 28th! Would also be wonderful to taste all the Oregon Valley has to offer! :)
July 21, 2011 at 13:38
I want to see the heart wine country and drink some wine!
July 21, 2011 at 14:56
I just stumbled upon Red Ridge farms a few weeks ago when my husband and I were traveling and tasting around that area for our 25th wedding anniversary. We had the most wonderful impromptu picnic under the pergola. I’d love this opportunity (and excuse!) to go again!
July 21, 2011 at 14:58
Yes, would be great to experience some more good wines
July 21, 2011 at 15:30

July 21, 2011 at 17:43
I’ve never been to a tasting. Sounds fun to wander around eating bits of other people’s food. Count me in. Is it a potluck?
July 21, 2011 at 18:23

I love drinking, my wife appreciates wines. This would be so awesome to take her to. I’m a teacher (not w/ PPS, so Im not paid a kings ransom)……so this is something that would be out of our budget usually.
July 22, 2011 at 10:25
i’d love to get these tickets .. i’d give them to the 2 Chinese students (in their 40s) staying at my house for 3 weeks … this would make their entire trip!
July 22, 2011 at 10:25
My boyfriend and I have been talking about going wine tasting since January and it just never works out, with our constant work schedules and this impossible Oregon weather. This sounds like a great opportunity to just stop everything and go. Hope we win :)

Drinking regional wines is always the most sustainable option. It supports the local farmers/vineyards/winemakers and decreases the carbon footprint from transporting across the world!
