Flâneur Wines

Flaneur’s tasting room is in a stunning refurbished barn that is both homey and elegant. The staff was super knowledgeable during our tasting, able to answer our detailed questions about the facility as well as the winery’s production process. Highly recommend adding the truffle popcorn to your tasting— you won’t regret it!

We had a wonderful time visiting this tasting room! As first time visitors, Mindy made us feel welcome and right at home. We enjoyed many delicious wines in the flight. We had such a wonderful experience we decided to join their wine club! Can’t wait to come back! Definitely check this place out if you haven’t yet :-)

We joined the wine club last spring, and this was our first Flâneur event (coming from Washington State it isn't always easy to make time for an event). The Fall Pickup Party was well worth it. Great wine, great food, beautiful setting, and perfect weather. We look forward to maintaining our club membership for the foreseeable future, and attending another Flâneur event.

Amazing experience. Great wines. Everything you want on a wine tasting day in Carlton. Kellie did everything right. Will definitely be back soon

What an amazing recommendation from NW Wine Shuttle and Kim. We squeezed them in and it ended up being my favorite part of the day! Spending time with Russell and the heart and story of Flaneur gave me a little bit of Paris married with delicious wine of the Willamette Valley. I cannot wait to return for food pairing and getting the most our of my new membership and reason to head to quaint Carlton from Portland as much as I can and recommending others as well as clients. What a great stop, don't miss it.

This place is truly spectacular. The architecture and cozy interior alone are worth the visit - but the wines are worth staying for. Our hostess was so friendly and welcoming, knowledgeable and personable. We loved the blend of the Pinots from the two vineyards and thought it was so interesting to taste the grapes separately in the other two Pinot noir wines.

Amazing wine, super friendly staff, and the coziest vibe you could ask for. This place is perfect for relaxing, laughing, and enjoying seriously good wine. If you’re looking for a spot that feels welcoming and fun, this is it. Don’t miss out—definitely worth the visit! 🍇🍷

What a great experience. We spent our wedding anniversary afternoon tasting their numerous wonderful wines. Such a beautiful tasting room. The staff are amazing (looking at you, Amelia!). A must visit! We'll definitely be back.

One our favorite tastings of the week! We will be back! And we joined the wine club. A cool place and a great experience.

The location was unbeatable!!! Kelly was beyond amazing and Anthony the wine maker is a genius . Best winery in the entire Willamette Valley!!!

We have done several dozen tastings in the Willamette Valley over the years & our experience at Flaneur this weekend was one of our all-time favorites. We'd been trying to come for years & glad that we finally made it happen. The pinots and chardonnay were absolutely tremendous and Mindy was one of the most knowledgeable sommeliers we've met, not to mention one of the most accommodating. PS Highly recommend splurging on their truffle popcorn with your tasting also!

Kelly was amazing and made our visit to Flaneur extra special. The wines and nosh plate was unique and delicious. The interior is spectacular with a vibey grain barn feel. Totally coming back.

Great space in a converted grain elevator. Pinots were bold and fruit forward. Some ready to drink today and some to lay down. Sparkling was also great. Had the cheese tasting to complement the wine tasting which was well curated. Did make a reservation since it was a Saturday, but they had a couple spare tables so you might be okay to walk in if you timed it right.

The 'Supper Club' evening is excellent and I highly recommend it. It was my first time going and I went by myself, but everyone was warm and welcoming and I made some new friends. But, the evening is really about the 'Supper' the chef they bring in is fantastic and the food is spot in. You will not leave hungry. I hope they keep doing this because it's hard to find wineries doing social events and bringing the community together. It's unique and fun and more establishments should follow this blueprint. Beautiful setting, great food, excellent wines, of course, wonderful and attentive staff. I have paid much more for way less for a dining experience. This isn't just 'going out to dinner' this is an experience that will be memorable and you'll probably leave with a nice bottle of wine. :)

The tasting room was cool - converted silo with lots of wood on the walls and different styles of tables and chairs for a unique experience. We all had the highlighted wine flight - $30/each - bubbles to pinot noir. Our server was robotic and explained the amounts of new oak barrels and the locations of the vineyards but she sounded bored and scripted. There was no interaction of wanting to know if we were locals or visitors, no questions if we enjoyed the wine or engaging in conversation as we had experienced at other local wineries. Place was empty by the time we had our third pour (out of five and around 330pm) so guess it's time to break out the staff tasting! A male staff member came out to the bar with a bottle wrapped in tin foil - wth? - and proceeded to pour five full glasses on the bar and then they all started drinking. Overheard a comment while they were laughing and chatting that it was a 2013. That would have been nice to try... Meanwhile we had empty glasses for almost 10 minutes. No eye contact. No checking on us (table was next to the bar too). My son works at a winery so is industry. I worked in the industry for 5 years until recently and would have NEVER done anything so tacky. Pass on this tasting experience. There are plenty of amazing wineries and tasting rooms within walking distance to have an immersive experience. Too bad because we joined the wine club on the last three wineries before that. They lost out on that one.

6 of us had a great time tasting at Flaneur. Excellent bubbles, chard and pinots (and popcorn!!). Such a rustic and comfortable space to enjoy wine. Thank you Mindy for taking care of us - you're awesome!

Recommended by the Sommelier at Okta, McMinnville, Flaneur was an exceptional tasting experience. Sandy was our host and educated us about the Williamette Valley (1st timers here), and enriched our experience with her generous knowledge and fine wines. The refurbed Grainery provides a unique experience inside or out. We chose the patio on a sunny Oregon day and it did not disappoint. The whole concept of the Flaneur spoke to us on our adventure and we reveled in enjoying every moment. The wines were fabulous and we bought several Pinots and the Sparkling - which I can't get enough of. Highly recommend.

We had not been to Flâneur since they opened in the Grain Elevator, and we were blown away by how beautiful it is! Kellie served us and she was a delight! We had so much fun! We were the only customers in there for most of our tasting. She had several parties outside, but she took great care of us! She was clearly busy, but she took time to chat with us, and we shared a lot of laughs. We ended up buying a case. We can't wait to go back next year. Beth Hommert

Joined the club we loved the wine and tasting room so much. Bought a bottle of bubbles to celebrate our son's engagement

Absolutely beautiful inside ! The tasting room is inside a grain elevator and it is just so cool! Love the plants, art work and music playing . Good wines and service as well. Loved the vibe, very relaxed. We had an awesome time!

This winery is newer establishment in Carlton, but I love their tasting room. Old barn turned into a beautiful well designed space. Open air but still cozy, so feels like being home, bar counter, couch and upstair library. Wish I can live here :) All Pinot Nor for Red and Chardonnay for white but their Wines have potential, and looking forward to coming back to do more tasting when the city has girls night out! (Every other month, April, June, Aug, Oct and Dec)

We thoroughly enjoyed our wine tasting on Saturday, May 27. Our host, Sandy, both instructed and answered our many questions regarding the wines served. We left feeling a little bit smarter and with a delicious bottle of 2018 Pinot...I really appreciated both the passion and enthusiasm of Sandy...Highly recommended!

The Flaneur space in the grain elevator in Carlton is magical! It's the best if the old world of wood craft construction and a super cozy and friendly tasting space -- and of course the wines are unbelievable! So much to offer, words do little to describe, but it is a destination worth a drive. Love the people too ! warm and wine savvy, friendly and charming. Highest recommendation!!!

Beautiful wines and a lovely, grand tasting room, with excellent customer service! They also allow dogs inside which is always going to gain the establishment an extra star ;).

The dinners, wine, happy hours and other events continue to impress. The staff are extremely knowledgeable about the wines and more importantly fun! The food is excellent and keeps getting better, which is hard to imagine. The space is one-of-a-kind and perfect for events or a casual tasting. A true delight on all fronts! Big shout out to our friends at Flaneur!

Unbelievable wines the cuvée is incredible along with the revelry Pinot is unlike anything I've tried. Ask for will to pour your wines! Friendly and knowledgable!

This place is EPIC! I've been to both their downtown tasting room and their barn in Newberg and just wow! The wines are really a standout in the valley, the tasting locations are super cool, and the staff is knowledgeable, accommodating, and friendly! Add this to your list for sure!

Too much oak across the board. Didn't care for any of the wines on their tasting flight. Wine glasses were sub-par for Pinot. .... Service was friendly but sub-professional. Nice space and location, and lots to love about the aesthetic. A little more baby-friendly than most wine-centered businesses. They are pushing the envelope on design and space, but their wines have a ways to go. They may just need to let some more of their barrels age; not sure if they are trying to be so oaky or not. 3.5 stars if I could.

Flaneur is one of those smaller wineries in the valley. They are doing great things thou, don't let their size fool you! Currently they are in downtown Carlton, by apt only. They are renovating the old grain elevator building that is targeted to open sometime next year. I can't wait to see what they do with the space! The current tasting room is small, and has a view of the action where the wine is stored. If your lucky, the winemaker might be there when you visit. Flaneur is a cool name with a story behind it. Their wines are very good too. From a light Pinot to a darker more bold Pinot, they have something for everyone's palate I beleive. I'm a fan of their Chardy also. Oregon Chards are smoother than the all buttery California styles. We loved Flaneur and the people behind these wines so much, we joined their club. We are very excited to see what awesome things they have planned!

Loved the building and location in downtown Carlton. Great ambiance inside of a converted grain storage building. Wines were OK after tasting some of the best in the region. Also, we purchased 3 bottles of wine, and Flaneur only waived one tasting fee, which isn't what I've experienced at other wineries in the area, and was a disappointment to our group. I shared this feedback directly with GM.

Really disappointed in the service here. If we hadn't had incredible service at the other wineries we visited it might of ruined our day. Not sure what ''twas going on.

This place was great! The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5, was because the flight costs $25, and the pours we got were TINY. I'd expect to pay $15 for a flight in a tasting room (not a scenic vineyard) but the new building was really neat and they let well behaved dogs inside, which was a plus for us on the rainy day that we went in. The staff are all super friendly and great at giving descriptions of what we were drinking and I'm excited to see the upstairs portion as soon as they're finished with construction. The Chardonnay was my favorite, which surprised me, being more of a red wine girl.

A very unique setting for a tasting excellent wines. Mindy did a great job of informing us about each of the wines we tasted. Will definitely come back here.

Spend an enjoyable afternoon wine tasting here Make sure Will is your server/pourer he was great!

One of the best wine tasting experiences I've ever had. The tasting room is comfortable and gorgeous. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and attentive. The wine was incredible. I'm ready to go back for more! I've not been able to stop talking about Flaneur since we left Carlton!

Our tasting was a couple weeks ago when most businesses were reopening after being shut down for a while, and they seemed to be handling it well. Beautiful renovated space with multiple places for small groups to hang out social distanced. The wine was a little young but we bought a few to take home.

We went to Flaneur for the first time Today. My boyfriend has a vineyard in Dayton. We have done a lot of wine tasting in the Willamette Valley. This is our new favorite spot. Tyson was super knowledgeable and very friendly. The wines were Amazing! We will be back in Oregon for harvest and cannot wait to visit Flaneur again! Thank you Tyson for such a great experience!

This place was fabulous!!! They are on the mid to high end, but worth every penny. They have a small selection, but I enjoyed each one!!! I will be back with more friends to share this fabulous place with them!

Not a bad place. I think it will get better as time goes on. Not the best wines in the area but okay. The price points are a little high especially for the Chardonnay. They did a really nice job restoring the old grain elevator.

5 stars though for the personality of the tasting presenter Cody! Excellent knoweledge and pesonality in a very ecletic location. Well worth the visit. Nice flights that were reasonably priced.

Delicious wines! Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Repurposed and wonderfully cozy barn/wine tasting room.
