Your One-Day Guide to the Columbia River Gorge - Eater Portland
"For natural wine nerds who, somehow, are still hungry, it’s worth it to splurge on a tasting at Hiyu Wine Farm, where chef and Portland expat Jason Barwikowski uses produce and animals from the farm and region for food pairings with the estate’s nationally renowned wines — think: beet tarts with citrus marmalade and tahini, or nasturtium leaves perched on sliced beef tongue with chile oil. The wines themselves are truly special — desert-grown zinfandel, white blends with grapes from regenerative farms, whole cluster pinot noir that spends two years on lees. Those really looking to splurge can stop here for a dinner, a $250 feast on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday nights with several courses and plenty of wine." - Katrina Yentch
