We are a family of 5 from Texas. We are ditched suburbia life and we are heading to live on a sailboat. Follow along as we learn what we are doing. This will be a great adventure.
Last week we adventured through Portland, playing downtown and driving through the Columbia River Gorge to explore Multnomah Falls and the Bonneville dam.
Today we went on our first ever wine tour. My friend Heather and her hubby took us around to 3 different wineries. Argyle, Dobbs, and Stoller. Stoller is the #1 wine tasting room in the US, according to USA today in 2018.

Mark Andrew from Roberson Wine talks about Bergstrom's Cumberland Reserve Pinot Noir
This Pinot Noir, named after Cumberland Road, where the Bergström family lived for many years in Portland, represents a selection from each of their five estate vineyards.
By blending from various sites, Josh Bergström feels he can make a wine that demonstrates the overall character of the Willamette Valley. This is rich with a silky texture, the concentrated dark fruit softened by elegant tannins and lifted by well-managed acidity.
One of the finest sources of Pinot Noir, not just in the United States, but in the world, Bergström Winery has consolidated its enviable reputation with a set of superb 2009s and 2010s.
The story began in 1999, when Josh and Caroline returned to the Willamette Valley, where his parents had been sowing and ploughing under rich green cover crops to revitalize the soil and prepare the land for vines. During his first year back from France, Josh planted vines and purchased grapes from other vineyards to make the first vintage of Bergström wine. He sourced fruit from other vineyards until 2001, when he produced his first wines using grapes from his family's vineyards.
The estate has more than 36 acres under vine, all of which are organically certified. Additionally, since 2000, the farming has been biodynamic and the results have impressed with an extra degree of vitality and freshness visible.
The amount of effort that Josh invests in the vineyard is one of the key reasons the wines are so impressive. Ten months of the year he is out on his tractor, all day, managing the vineyards. His approach is painstaking, meticulous and has been an inspiration to many young winemakers in the region.
Roberson Wine is an award-winning wine merchant based in Kensington, London and online. They specialise in Californian and French wines.
