Drive Me To Drink…Wine Tours offers relaxed, private Willamette Valley wine tours through Oregon’s North Willamette Valley, just outside Portland, for groups of 4–11.
Based in Dayton, in the heart of wine country, we create well-paced wine tasting tours built around your group. Some groups come out for a relaxed afternoon, while others spend a full day exploring. You might be celebrating a special occasion, or simply planning a day out in wine country. Our goal is to create a day that feels easy, unhurried, and well put together.
Our tours spend time among the scenic wineries of Oregon’s North Willamette Valley, including the Dundee Hills, Ribbon Ridge, Chehalem Mountains, and the Yamhill-Carlton District, which are some of the region’s most celebrated wine areas, and places we know well.
