The Best Willamette Valley Wine Tastings and Wineries | Eater Portland
"With its 250-acre biodynamic Mineral Springs Ranch farm and vineyard near Carlton, Soter’s connection to and reverence for the land is evident in its thoughtful pinot noirs and nuanced traditional-method sparkling wines. This ethos is also front-and-center in the winery’s hospitality, with the ranch’s stately tasting room overlooking the grounds from its hilltop perch, swaddled by trees and vineyards. But it’s not just the wines that evoke a sense of place; the farm’s regenerative spirit continues in the farm-to-table Provisions tasting menu, with many ingredients grown or raised on-site. Open daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Soter requires reservations for all tastings." - Katherine Chew Hamilton
