Lovely Urban Vineyard. Soon to become COMPTON Family Wines.
I had the pleasure of visiting Compton Family Wines when they were called Spindrift Cellars back in late Dec. 2019. I believe Spindrift was the winemaker's first label and were transitioning into the Compton Family Wines label during our visit. The Winemaker's last name...only makes sense...duh!
There are small handful of Urban Wineries in Philomath. Compton Family WInes has a nice elegant tasting room. There are board games, cards and a few other stimulating distractions to keep the young ones occupied. At the time of our visit, the tasting menu had seven options for us to enjoy. I found the wines here to be very good, with very reasonable prices. I still can't believe the tasting fee was only $7. The staff is was very friendly and knowledgeable.

I have always felt welcomed by Tabitha. She has gone out of her way to make me feel comfortable whether I was alone or with my kids or with friends. It is wonderful to pick up wine on our way camping to the coast! My favorite is the summer rose' or the holiday port. Lately, I find the SeaO2 bubbly really fun for everyday drinking. I recently switched from being an all red member to a mix and am enjoying the variety. During Covid, Tabitha carefully shipped wine for me as professional gifts. They were perfect thank you gifts. So, yes, a 5 star...
Read moreWe love wine tasting at Compton Family Winery! We are locals, so it is a short trip for us to be able to taste award winning wines from the friendly owners, tasting room manager, and employees. They are very community minded, and give back generously to multiple agencies in Benton County. I am all about supporting local! Bonus that they serve quality, delicious wines. It is a no-fuss place to wine taste. I always feel welcomed and never feel the stuffiness that can happen while tasting at some places. Tabitha, the owner, is great! Highly recommend stopping by, and from there it is only a few more miles to check out a couple of other Benton County...
