Pheasant Run Winery Tasting Room

Awesome wine! Really liked all the red blends. Located in an old historic bank, which is very cool.

The wine was really good! However… they might need to visit some more professional wineries to learn a thing or two. The tasting flights are $ 5 each, a standard and very good price for a tasting.
There ate two things that stuck out. First, the size of the tastings, we received beautiful maybe red wine glasses, fairly standard, but the pours were only about half an ounce rather than the standard one or two ounce pour that most tasting rooms will give.
Second was the bill. I liked the wines and decided that I wanted to buy some. Most tasting rooms will comp your tasting when you buy a bottle of wine. But this place charged us for our three tastings after buying two bottles of wine for almost $ 40!
While the wine was good, it left me wanting more and a bad taste in my mouth for if I go in again.

Delightful folks and tasty wine brings vibrancy into the charming small town of Aurora. Every experience has been enjoyable in the extreme!

Being the only tasting room in Aurora, it’s a good place to stop if you are nearby antiquing. The building itself is historic and beautiful, there is plenty of seating and the tasting fees are inexpensive.
My husband and I dropped in and tasted the wine, munched on filberts and chatted with the owner. It was a nice experience, the wine was good, but not exciting enough to come to town just to visit the tasting room. We took a couple bottles home.

My husband and I were here a few weeks ago and just loved their wine. The staff is friendly and so helpful in picking out wines that we would like. We bought quite a few wines and looking forward to going back! The location is in an old bank building and is so full of charm. A wonderful place to visit and taste wine!

I have been to the Tasting room a few times now, always with a great experience. They have a number of wines, but I am a fan of the Bank Robber Red, which is their blend, and the Cabernet. The tasting room is cozy with a fun back story, and it fits in with the community of Aurora, being in the old bank building. I recently purchased a coupon to go back, I’m sure I will purchase more wine, hopefully they will have more of the 07 Cab.

What a wonderful little tasting room! So much fun to hear about the wines from the famly who runs the vineyard. Lovely crowd, delicious wines, wonderful family!

Cool old bank tasting room. $ 5.00 tasting fee. Server knew next to nothing about the wines. Could not recommend an order to taste wines. Insulted my wife when she did not like their most popular wine. Started by using a rag to clean my wife’s glass, then poured the wine from the dirty glass into another glass. Wines were served too warm. Most unimpressed with wines and the server. Terrible experience.

Great environment and consistently good wines.

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t impressed. Their tasting room is quaint and while the hosts did a nice job the wine really wasn’t all that. As the Pinot Noir was pretty flat with a wet finish which I’ll be honest wasn’t to my liking.
That said, their reisling and pinot gri were pretty decent, but I was really underwhelmed by their reds which sort of dominates my rating.

What a WONDERFUL new addition to the charming town of Aurora!!! Not only are the new owners kind and warm to meet, they also have found a historic building, Aurora’s original bank building, and are lovingly restoring it to its previous old day glory!!!
Remember to look for the original windows being restored, the original flooring & BEAUTIFUL hand crafted wine bar made from wine barrels along with the stained, gnarled beauties of old vines behind the bar as décor. And if I’m not mistaken, this building was even used in Bruce Willis’ film «Bandits» What a fantastic display! I also overheard they will be adding local artwork soon.
Now for the best part, THE WINE of course! Carl (sorry if I didn’t get the name right… bad with names) was very informative about the wines he served as it has been in his family. There is an obvious passion behind his words & behind his eyes!
MY FAVORITES ~ Bank Vault Sangiovese & the Pheasant Run Chardonnay
P. S. Great Oregon themed Gift ideas since their «Bank Vault» line of wines have a photo of the bank building on the labels! (And I hear Aurora Locals get a DISCOUNT!)
