Twist Wine Company/Basket Case Wines — Attraction in Pacific City

My husband and I have been looking forward to visiting Twist, but put it off for a while due to COVID. We found that they offer outdoor seating in a sunny spot that is mostly protected from the wind so we gave it a shot.

The indoor area is large enough to hold several tables, 2 or 3 of them for large groups, and about 6 fitting groups of up to 4. It is bright and airy.

I chose a wine flight of 4 wines for $10 and (as most places do) they also provided one more on the house. My husband picked out a beer on draft (Bouy Cream Ale). We both enjoyed our selections! I ended up ordering a glass of their 2020 Shy Chenin - Sparkling Syrah, while my husband had a glass of Bend Brewing Co’s Killer Stashe Pale Ale.

We enjoyed it all so much that we brought a guest on our next trip and plan to return with more friends soon.

You can order small plates if you want ranging in price...

Lovely place! Place your order inside at the bar - they are dog friendly on their back patio (on leash) but no dogs inside per food laws so be sure to keep your pup outdoors! All their wines are locally made in McMinville - there are fantastic descriptions on the menu to help you make your choice or there is a flight of local favorites available if you aren’t sure. All wines are available by the glass or by the bottle. The menu has some light tasty snacks to choose from. They also have some beers available in case not everyone in your group is a wine lover - a great selection and even some available to go (in addition to wine of course!). There is also a fun selection of mostly local sundries and gifts. Service is stellar - really wonderful folks who are helpful and knowledgeable beyond measure - thank you so much for making this such a great...

Been coming to Pacific City for years and finally made it in to Twist upon recommendation. Well curated beer and wine selection, and excellent hard to find tap choices in a bright and chill spot away from the crowds at Pelican. Spontaneous fermentation selections, nice provisions and friendly owners, it’s a must if you like good beer and wine! Maybe it was the font of their sign, but Twist is far more hip...
