Winter Wine Tastings and Tours
Our collection of unique, small-group experiences offer in-depth conversations alongside a carefully chosen selection of our highly acclaimed wines. Join us at the winery for one of our private seated tasting experiences with a dedicated host, Brooks’ famous cheese and charcuterie plate, and a specially curated wine flight that highlights the Brooks portfolio.
Ara Ascending
Sip through the stars with a flight of library wines focused on our Club Member Exclusive Riesling, Ara. Explore the unique personality and intertwined relationship of the two vineyards featured in the Ara and how they blend together to form constellations of flavor in a wine all its own.
- Discover the history of Brooks Wine on a walking tour of our Production Hall and Barrel Room.
- Sip on a flight of six dry Rieslings, two vintages each of Brooks Estate, Yamhill, and Ara Riesling.
- Experience a guided tasting illuminating how each single vineyard Riesling’s expression relates to its individual vineyard and how each contributes to the beauty and science of a blend to create constellations of flavor in a new wine all its own.
- Snack as you sip with our famous Paco Board featuring charcuterie, cheese, jam, and nuts. (Please reply with any food allergies. One board per two guests.)
- The experience is approximately 90 minutes in length, with the seated tasting indoors. We will be walking and climbing a few stairs, so we recommend wearing comfortable shoes.
$80 per person (Brooks Wine Club Members enjoy 20% off) for up to 6 participants.
Reservations are available daily at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM.
We do ask for a deposit in the amount of $40 to hold your reservation.
