Willamette Valley, Oregon
Oregon’s dense Willamette Valley is an excellent alternative to the prices of Napa. In McMinnville, you’ll find charming shops along the main street, fresh local food at restaurants, and incredible lodgings like Atticus Hotel.
There are also over 20 tasting rooms in town, which include bottles from the more than 250 wineries within a 20-mile radius.
And even though you can certainly stop by any tasting room unannounced while on this US mother-daughter getaway, for a more subtle experience, we recommend booking R. Stuart and Co.’s Taste of Place, which takes you through the Valley’s various terroirs one winery at a time.
If you wish to squeeze in some spa time, and who would blame you?, book an afternoon at the nearby Allison Inn & Spa for a signature “Pinotherapy” treatment and have some lunch at farm-to-table restaurant Jory.
