  Once again, Kevin did not disappoint. Not only did he not disappoint - he exceeded expectations! This was our second trip with Kevin, the first having been a... read more trip south to the Umpqua Valley. 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!

  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!

  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!
