As a Hillsboro resident, I've been to a lot of tastings in Yamhill county. One piece of advice I'd give anyone, doing anything touristy is ask the locals where they go. On our most recent trip we started out by pointing at a random vineyard on the map near our inn, then started asking for recommendations. Holloran was recommended no less than three times before we decided to give it a try on a Saturday afternoon.
I'm struggling to come up with the words. The wine is phenomenal, the staff is amazing. For the first time in my life I've decided to become a club member at a vineyard.

The quote "don't judge a book by its cover" definitely applies here!!! We are from Michigan and stopped in for a quick visit before we fly back home, we had 3 little kids in tow and they were very accommodating, they even let one of our little guys pick some grapes to try. It isn't really a place that you want to bring kids because of the elegant, intimate ambiance inside, but we were grateful for the service. They are currently under construction in part of the area but it's almost finished, they're just working on unwrapping their beautiful new...
