Winemaker For A Day

Live the dream of crafting your own vintage in the Blending Room! Part science, part art, wine blending is the magical tool in a winemaker's kit that enhances aromas, and flavors, and marries a variety of grapes. Blending highlights the attributes of certain grapes while balancing out the profile of others.

Learn the winemaker's art while creating your perfect blend exactly to your liking. You and a guest will spend a morning with Youngberg Hill's expert winemaker, learning the significance of aroma, mouthfeel, and taste.

This 90-minute experience concludes with designing your own label you choose from a selection of templates. Wines will be shipped to your home after a few weeks.

Crown the day by using your gift certificate for La Rambla. Dedicated to providing a combination of excellent food, superior wines, and attentive, knowledgeable service, La Rambla blends the freshness of the Northwest with the exciting cuisine of Spain.

'Staycation on' 3rd

Start off your day by checking into the Douglas on Third. It is a boutique hotel proud to be more than a hotel in a town that is more than a town. McMinnville is a melting pot of cultures and flavors, experiences, and relaxation.  After settling in at The Douglas, prepare for a totally unique dining experience at OKTA Restaurant!  Chef Matthew Lightner draws inspiration from the bounty of the Willamette Valley micro-seasons to craft a highly progressive tasting menu. Relax and enjoy the showcase of your surroundings through food, art, culture, sustainability and imagination for your three-hour dining event! 

Tuck yourselves into bed back at The Douglas and sleep well. Upon awakening, walk down to Crescent Café for a delicious breakfast specializing in serving the freshest, locally sourced ingredients. 

Your day isn’t over! Once you check out, take a walk down Third Street to spend your remaining certificates and enjoy our vibrant downtown – enjoy lunch at The Sage Restaurant. They have been serving fresh soups, salads, sandwiches, and bread for over 40 years. Delicious! Savor an educated private tasting at Troon Vineyard Tasting Room complimented with a charcuterie board. Cheers!
