As always, our first Wine Wednesday of the month features our Wild Card Wines theme!

WWS clients and their guests are invited to stop by the tasting room with a bottle of their choice — whether it’s a hidden gem, a longtime favorite, or something completely unexpected. This is your chance to mix things up, share a pour, compare notes, and discover new favorites with fellow wine lovers. Cheers!

This week’s Wine Wednesday theme spotlights Favorite White Wines!

WWS clients and guests are invited to join us for an evening exploring some of the world’s most celebrated white wines — from crisp and refreshing to rich and aromatic. Whether you enjoy bright citrus flavors, floral aromatics, or creamy elegance, this week’s tasting is for you.

White wine lovers know there are countless exceptional styles to explore, including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Albariño, and more. Feel free to bring a favorite bottle to open, share, and compare. Whether from classic Old World regions, California, or right here in Oregon these wines are sure to be appreciated. We look forward to seeing you Wednesday. Cheers!

WWS Updates... May 2026

ALARM SYSTEM REMINDERS
Due to an increase in false alarms, please keep the following in mind:
• After entering the cellar tasting room with your access card, go directly to the keypad next to the cellar door.
• If the keypad prompts for a “code,” hold your card key over the green and red lights. There is no code to enter—the access is built into your card.
• When leaving, if you’re unsure, please set the alarm. If others remain in the cellar, a three-minute warning will sound, allowing time to return to the keypad and disarm.
• Instructions are posted above the keypad. If you need assistance or a quick tutorial, please stop by the cellar office.
Thank you for your attention and cooperation.

TASTING ROOM ETIQUETTE REMINDERS
• Empty wine bottles should be placed in the blue recycling bins.
• Stemware should be placed in the designated bins, bowl up and stem down.
• Utensils, plates, and other items should be placed in the provided bus tubs.
Thank you!

LEFTOVER WINE
To help limit liability, please take any leftover wine with you when you leave the tasting room or return it to your locker. All wine consumed should be your personal wine, opened and shared by you and your guests.

DON'T DRINK and DRIVE
Please use alternative transportation, if necessary, when leaving WWS. Here are the two taxi companies we recommend, and UBER or LYFT are great options too.... Radio Cab 503-227-1212 Portland Taxi Cab Co. 503-256-5400
