Update 3/2021:
Classic wines by passionate winemakers!
The 2016 Umpqua Valley Pinot Noir I’m currently drinking (good luck finding a bottle) is a classic! This baby has been sitting in my cellar for two years and today is a special occasion (I wanted to sip a good wine). The classic notes of black cherry open to perfection. Behaved acidity and truly silky tannins make this a wine you want to keep savoring.
95 points and I’m being stingy).
If only Dyson and Scott would put actual tasting notes on the back label rather than the tripe some marketing consultant talked them into. Fortunately that does not detract from this outstanding wine.

Paul O’Brien’s was recommended by a former vineyard owner - and that was a great recommendation! Some of the best wines I’ve had in the Umpqua valley are here (bought more bottles here than at any other winery on this trip).
Come here for the wines rather than vineyard views. 2016 Pinot Noir (awesome); best Tempranillo I’ve had outside of Spain! Cozy wine tasting room with pleasant service. $10 tasting fee waived with purchase of one bottle (which you are going to want anyway). Highly recommend.
Most amazing winery. The tasting room is so nice. The staff, amazing. The service OUT OF THIS WORLD. Stopped again to pick up our replacement bottle (see husband Alfonse Daudet review). Amanda in the tasting room is a “rock star”.
We love this place. Please come and enjoy. Alfonse and I strongly recommend it.

Bought a 3 litter bottle of their Pinot Noir. The cork pop out of the bottle, unmolested, half way to California. All that wine spilled onto our car carpet and back seat. Alerted the tasting room manager, Lacey, and she was to let us know about compensation this afternoon, after she spoke to Scott.
I will amend this review subject to Scott’s reply.
Winery replied this morning and the bottle will be replaced. We also accepted the apology for the no call-back when promised. All good now. Great service despite of it all.
To all: do not carry the large bottles laying down and do not expose to any heat (last one suggested by the winery).

We are a wine family from CA and recently moved up. After having kids and the recent move it has been almost 7 months since we (my wife and I) have been able to go on a date.
The wines were great and the tasting room was beautiful. The wine steward was also awesome. Everything was great until the wine club lady came out. I believe her name was Linda. She was extremely rude and condescending to the point that we got really uncomfortable and left. We were on cloud 9 and feel like the rug was ripped out from under us. I don’t understand what we did to be treated this way.
