Yamhill Wine Country & Columbia County

The exurban western and northern edges of the Portland MSA, where Yamhill County's world-renowned Willamette Valley wine country meets Columbia County's riverside mill towns. Newberg and McMinnville are the gateway communities to Oregon's Pinot Noir heartland, while Scappoose and St. Helens offer small-town Columbia River living with Portland commuter access. Dundee and Dayton round out the tasting-room circuit.
