Completely underwhelmed. I've been to more than 50 Oregon wineries for tastings, and this was one of the most disappointing. When booking months in advance I was told half the group doing the daily flight and the other half doing the elevated flight wasn't possible. However, the tasting associate that served us offered that choice. The flight pricing at $45 or $65 is on the very top side of the price range for the Willamette Valley, and bottle prices of $80+ are also in the top range for the Valley.

That being said, their 2021 that was rated 9th in the world (don’t recall the governing body - 94pts) was quite good.
Our guide, Ibis, was super friendly and knowledgeable and had experience from elsewhere in the world. Enjoyed the experience all around, 4 star wines for us but more approachable for those that like California style wines...
