DAY TWO - Portland / Oregon Coast Wineries (Sept. 29, 2007)
On Day 2, we had breakfast at McMenamins Kennedy School and then headed out to our first winery. In order, we went to Rex Hill, Duck Pond, Torri Mor and Erath. We then headed south to get within striking distance of Crater Lake.
The third winery of the day was Torri Mor. Sorry that I don't have a link to their site but it looks like they don't have a web site. I thought the prices were a bit steep and not that tasty. They charged the most for the wine tasting of any winery on our trip. I did end up buying two things though. The brought out a Port but made us sample some dark chocolate first. Both were heavenly and I bought the port but shuddered at the $50 price tag.
The second item was a book called Wine Dogs, the dogs of the North American wineries. A fantastic photo book of dogs in great poses.

Found an amazon.com link for wine dogs!
The last winery on the tour was Erath. I forgot I had a couple bottles of their wine already at home. The offered free tasting of their regular wines and a very reasonable price for tasting their premium wines. We didn't purchase any wine there but bought some Gouda cheese and bagel chips and headed south. We wanted to get as close as we could to Crater Lake before stopping.
