From our friends at Portland Short Bus:
PDX Urban Wine Experience
Sunday, August 12, 2012
12 p.m. | $49 | 21+
More Info & Tickets: www.portlandshortbus.com
Wine tasting isn’t just a scenic cruise through tranquil countryside surrounding Portland – nay, you can enjoy it right here in our own fair city – Portland has a thing for vintage. There are no fewer than 9 wineries right here in the urban heart of Portland. Just like our distilleries, breweries, and restaurants these places are aces.
Hop on the Short Bus with up to 12 other revelers and let us provide you with a ride around town to these fantastic wineries. Plenty of sipping, you leave the driving to us. Your tasting fees are covered at all 4 wineries with your seat purchase (a $25 value).
The tour goes from Noon-6pm and will hit four urban tasting rooms with wines from all nine wineries represented. We provide bottled water and yes, you may certainly consume your wine purchases on our bus.
Our noon meet-up location is at a centrally located urban winery right off the MAX. The top secret location and details will be emailed to you upon completion of seat purchase.






















I want to go because I love wine, buses, and winning free stuff!
I’d love to be a better ambassador for Portland, Oregon wines. Great tour idea.
I can’t think of a better way to think and drink local than wine on a yellow bus! That’s why I want to win.
Would love to go.
Yum!! Wine and someone else driving would be great!
I have never won a ticket through you and if I don’t win this one I will wine until I do!
I love wine and want to ride the short bus!
I’ve volunteered at three beer festivals over the past three weekends. Would love to shirk responsibility and drink some wine this time!
Look at me! I’m a winocerous! Need a wine experience please!
My bf is out of town at a bachelor party! I need to go drink wine all day with a girl friend and maybe flirt with the bus driver.
I have never been wine tasting in the NW and I would love to try out some of our praised pinot noirs’s and my favorite, reislings and pinot gris. This would be a blessing to win! What a fun Sunday that sounds like! Thanks!
Wow! a short bus and wine, now that would be a day to savor!!
Sounds delicious and fun! Yes, please!
HeLlO!!! My honey is coming into town this weekend and I would love to show him the more wineo side of Portland! He is from Seattle and I like to show him my city is better.. this would help :) Thanks!
Gives me an excuse not to go to my in laws!
I wanna ride the short bus!
The fact that it is called the short bus is reason enough.
Short bus + wine = awesomeness
Would love to go!
Spill the wine
I just want to not be the DD for once!
What a great way to enjoy some fine wine and new places to visit; and NOT have to drive for once (!) . I would love to take part in this little road-trip and whet my pallet…
sounds like a great time! i love wine and fun events!
I’d kill for a free glasses of wine… no not really. It’d be pretty sweet to win this though
Just moved here and have bonded with my new friends over several wine filled happy hours. This would be a fun way to get out and see more of my new home!
OH WOW! I want to go! I need something fun and free to do in PORTLAND :)
What a great idea! I often avoid drinking around town because I tend to be the one doing the driving. Short Bus could fix that right up.
Legal drinking on a bus: not just for transients and alcoholics anymore! Hell yeah! (also, wine)
I use to ride a short bus…sweet!
august 12th is my 36th birthday. I just moved to Oregon last year and am expanding my wine knowledge. this would send me a long ways you’re my goal as well as be a great present!
Can’t afford the wine country limos so this sounds great!!
We are new to the Portland area and would love to experience wine, Portland and riding the short bus!
I love wine, I love tours, but with a son and paying my way through college (at 27) I can’t often affor either one. This would be a wonderful treat!
I feel like a winner….so make me one! and I guarantee we will have fun on this tour!
I want to go…because it would give me something to blog about :D
I want to ride the short bus!! I’ll even lick windows!! LOL
I would love to go on an urban wine tasting! When people think of wine tasting tours they usually think of going south and visiting wineries on the way out to the coast, it’s great that someone finally set up a tour that highlights the great wineries right here in the Portland metro area!
Short buses are awesome!!
Work at a Wine Bar. so what better way to get to know the different wines!
Looks like fun! I need me some wine time!
need a break from the beer drinking
Holy cow!!!! This sounds like heaven!!!!! Would love to win pretty please!
