  We were a party of four from out of state on our first visit to Oregon. We were very interested in experiencing the wines from the Eugene area as... read more we do not have an opportunity to get many Oregon wines in Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, we only had time to do the half day tour with Kevin. Kevin was very thorough in asking questions in advance to determine what we were looking for in a tour. We wanted to focus on small boutique wineries that highlighted what the area was known for. Kevin promptly picked us up from our B&B and took us to three area wineries. We stopped at Capitello, Brigadoon and Tyee. All very intimate experiences where we with met with each of the wine makers for a private tasting session and great conversations about the wines. We had a nice lunch at Tyee that Kevin prepared. Next time we are in the area, we would definitely book another tour with Kevin to explore some of the other wine areas around Eugene.

  My wife and I spent a memorable Wine Tour day with Kevin of Vine to Wine yesterday, August 8, 2015. We visited Brooks, Bethel Heights, Bryn Mawr and Walter Scott... read more wineries. Each produced Pinot and each had a world class view paired with an interesting story. From generational family business to "decided this was my calling" each stop was memorable. To top the day Kevin served a world class selection of cheese, bread, salome and trimmings for lunch. Our expectations were far exceeded and we went home with a case of tasty Pinot to remember the day. If you are serious about wine and want to learn more, this is your day trip!

  I received the wine tasting tour as a gift and was given the option of choosing northern or southern wineries. As I am somewhat familiar with the northern wine country... read more the southern tour was the obvious choice. From the moment Kevin picked us up at my home his enthusiasm and knowledge of wines and the history of Oregon wine making was apparent.The four wineries he selected were very different but with unique qualities that gave insight into how varied the approach to winemaking can be. It was a day spent with great wines, food and people in some of the most beautiful country in Oregon. I highly recommend Kevin to anyone interested in getting to know more about Oregon wines whether you are a novice or enthusiast.

  We traveled from Boston to Eugene for my wife’s birthday and did a full and half-day wine tour. Kevin and his tours wildly exceeded our expectations.

Also, he has great relationships...we were treated to private tours of the wineries and even got to drink straight from the barrel with the winemaker and owner of one of the vineyards. 110% recommend and will definitely be back! …

  We have just completed two day-long wine tours with a group of six people one day, and five the next and everyone commented on what a great time they had.... read more Kevin is very professional and truly knows his stuff. What was particularly useful was his way of sharing information in a way that recognized our group had varying degrees of knowledge and interest about OR wines, the history of the OR winemaking industry, and the process (and styles) that many of the winemakers use. Given a good grounding on alleges topics, Kevin then reinforced his points with well-targeted visits to the wineries he selected. His selections were spot-on for what we were interested in -- small- to mid-sized wineries with award winning Pinot Noirs and winemakers with interesting approaches and philosophies of wine making. Kevin seems to have excellent relationships with a number of owners/winemakers in the area, which became obvious both in their interactions with him and the amount of time they were willing to spend with us -- especially during the harvest. He would then reinforce some of his key points after each visit, giving us an excellent cross-section of knowledge by the end of each day. Knowledge aside, Kevin is a friendly and personable guy, making it fun to spend time with him. I highly recommend Kevin. We will certainly use him again!

  Kevin was prompt, friendly and very knowledgeable. We started at Territorial Vineyards and Wine Company with a lesson on wine making and tasting. We then headed to Capitello wines for... read more a comparison tasting of Oregon and New Zealand reds followed by a wonderful spread of bread, meats and cheese. Kevin then took us to Brigadoon Winery for more tasting Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir. We ended our tour at Silvan Ridge Winery tasting again a few more Pinot Noir and Malbec and Super Rioja. I would definitely recommend Kevin for his touring of the Eugene area wineries. Our group of friends enjoyed the beautiful day and and Kevin’s company and wealth of knowledge.

This time - a full day excursion from Eugene to the Eola-Amity Hills Sub-AVA just west of Salem. We visited Walter Scott, Bethel Heights, and Bryn Mawr and finished off with a sneak peek at Lingua Franca, which hasn't really even opened its doors yet! Kevin is so knowledgeable about the wineries and wines, and the winemakers welcome his visits. You cannot go wrong with an Oregon Vine2Wine tour. It is so worth the investment - and you come back with more wine smarts than you had when you started out! We will definitely do it again!
