Newberg Downtown Wineries
Billed as a “state of wine in just one mile,” Newberg’s easily walked downtown district packs in nine different tasting rooms.

Plan to make a few bonus stops—sushi, tacos, and frozen custard are all nearby.

Pinot Bingo
Checking off boxes has rarely been this delicious. Travel between the trail’s nearly 20 wineries (all within an easy drive from Eugene and Springfield) and you get pours of not just great pinot noir but also petite sirah, viognier, and grenache, just to name a few. Playing is easy, too: Complete a bingo row on your card and you’ll net custom framed art. Fill the three center rows and take home a pinot noir glass.
