Secrets of the Season |
Winery on Oregon Coast Gives Vino a Fun and Musical Twist
 |
| David Grisman performing at the winery a few years ago |
(Nehalem, Oregon) – It's more than just a winery that sits on a hill, surrounded by lush farmland and the small mountains of the coast range clustered close together.
It’s a palace of fun and an intriguing place for a live music venue.
Each year, the winery hosts a joyous blues festival, a legendary Fourth of July party, and the massive Bluegrass n’ BBQ festival that often features national acts like David Grisman, Laurie Lewis or the Austin Lounge Lizards. There are other intriguing, unforgettable music festivals as well, which differ from year to year.

At the Nehalem Bay Winery, you’ll discover a whole new take on the world of wine tasting. It’s fun, it’s funky and it’s very quirky – shaking loose all pretentiousness from the vino experience.

First, you enter the thick green farmlands and tightly knit hills, immediately evoking the wine producing regions of France or Germany. Even the building – a historic creamery – looks somewhat European in architecture. You immediately sense something is different, even more upbeat than usual.
A large variety of wines are on hand at the tasting room, which guests can enjoy year round, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day. The fun never stops at this varietal merry-go-round.
They ship wines right to you, wherever you are. One of their more popular features is visitors ordering more of this delicious nectar from wherever they live around the country, after they’ve gotten hooked on the stuff during a trip to the stunning Oregon coast.
They
also have some great specials that include free shipping. Call them or
email them with an order and you’ll get it quickly. www.nehalembaywinery.com
For Portlanders or visitors to Astoria, you can find them at the Portland Farmers Market, Thursdays in the Pearl District June; and Astoria Sunday Market through early October in Downtown Astoria.
The
Nehalem Bay Winery is located on Highway 53, one mile from Highway 101,
between Wheeler and Nehalem. Advance tickets are on sale now. Call 888-368-9463.
www.nehalembaywinery.com.
The winery is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. for wine tasting and other memorable moments every day throughout the rest of the year, except some major holidays.
Stay tuned for the 2009 Summer Schedule....or see www.nehalembaywinery.com
