A Rare Find

Although wine tasting is one of my favorite things to do any time of year, I had forgotten that winter is an especially good time to pursue this hobby. Harvest is over, winery people have time to chat about their wines, and this leisurely pace makes it easy to discover new wineries and varietals. Touring the Yamhill Valley area on Saturday, our group was delighted to stumble across Daedalus Cellars in downtown Dundee, Oregon. Newly located on Highway 99 near Tenth Street, the tasting room is a bit hard to find, but definitely worth the effort. Having the opportunity to chat with direct sales manager Sara Shaw, taste Daedalus' Gruner Veltliner, and learn more about Aron Hess' low-intervention winemaking was the highpoint of the day. Daedalus is only one of two U.S. wineries that make "Gruner," an Austrian varietal.

There are so many tasting rooms in Oregon Wine Country that it's easy to find something new and amazing on every outing. On your next visit, I encourage you to check out Deadalus.
