Triangle Wine Country

My niece and I spent a fabulous day with Dan, proprietor of Triangle Wine Tours. He picked us up at our hotel in downtown Portland and spent the entire day with us and another couple from Florida. It was wonderful to have a fun and knowledgeable guide and driver. We learned so much about the planting of the grapes, the harvesting, and the process of making wine as well as, of course, the tasting of the finished product. I highly recommend Dan and his company and would go with him again if I return to Portland.

My wife and I had an awesome time with Dan! I have always enjoyed wine but never knew how to explain what i did and didn't like. He helped me figure out the characteristic that I enjoyed in wine and how to find them! Wine can come across very pretentious but Dan made the experience fun, informative, and very welcoming. You can’t go wrong with this group!

Dan arrived on time and took us to a good variety or wineries that appealed to both of our palates. We got to meet some of the winemakers and enjoyed delicious food and snacks along the way. Regardless of you prior wine knowledge/experience you will definitely learn more about the Willamette region and it’s blockbuster wines on this tour. Dan was very thoughtful, knowledgeable, fun and prompt. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the region.

Dan picked is up on time and we immediately liked him. He is funny and over the course of the day proved to be very knowledgeable about wine in general, the finer points of wine tasting and so much more ( Portland, things to do, food, etc.). This was a relaxing, lovely day and if we come back would not hesitate to seek out another tour with Dan. We highly recommend Dan and his company.

Highly recommend this company, wrote a review back in 2018. Dan the owner is more than wonderful and had a great tour planned.

Dan was prompt to pick us up from our AirBnB location and took the gorgeous, scenic route as we embarked on our tour. The wineries he took us to were quaint, picturesque & VERY accommodating to our group. Dan was a wealth of knowledge as a level 3 Sommelier & but he didn’t make you feel stupid if you asked a seemingly “silly” question. At our second location, we were provided the most fabulous meat/cheese/hummus plate that was gluten-free. I’ll definitely book Dan again & I’m so glad we picked this tour over any others!

My husband and I toured wine country with Dan who owns Triangle Tours. He is a sommelier so knows more about wine than anyone we've ever met. His knowledge and charisma made the day a perfect one. We had great wine, food, and weather. And made new friends. We booked our tour less than 24 hours prior to the event, so feel extremely lucky that there were 2 openings for this day. Thank you, Dan.

Dan is a true professional! He selected interesting wineries we otherwise may not have considered and shared his deep knowledge of wine using a style that is both engaging and unpretentious. I would highly recommend his business to anyone interested in exploring Oregon's wine country. He exceeded all of our expectations.

We did a private tour with Dan! It was an unhurried day winding through the beautiful wine country with several stops that Dan picked according to our wine palate. Dan is very knowledgeable and makes for great company with a bright sense of humor. Highly recommended!

Best wine tour we have ever taken. Dan is simply terrific - knowledgeable, engaging, and well-respected across the Valley. We had a wonderful day, with extended stops at three excellent wineries along with a yummy lunch. Transportation was very comfortable - and allowed for outstanding views of the lovely Valley. Dan ensures you learn about the area, the vineyards, the families, and their distinctive approaches to winemaking. The Valley, best known for its Pinot Noir, produces many outstanding wines. The region is growing and gaining more recognition, but still retains a “youthful” charm, energy and enthusiasm. All tasting fees, snacks and lunch are included, so the tour is really a great package. Plus, Dan takes photos - and sends them to you at the end of the day. One of the many nice touches! This tour is absolutely the best way to experience the Willamette Valley. We highly recommend it - and we look forward to touring again with Dan.

My dear friend and I chose Triangle Wine Country Tours based on the wonderful reviews we saw on line...and wow! We’re so very glad that we did!! Dan was simply amazing. Not only did we enjoy the unique vineyards he took us to visit...within moments of being with Dan we knew we had made a new and very dear friend! Dans knowledge if wine and this region’s fabulous offerings blew us away...his gift is his unique ability to make you comfortable while teaching you about wine and why we like what we like! I can not recommend him highly enough...we will definitely book another tour the next time we’re in Portland! Thanks Dan! We miss you - and toast you with every bottle we open!
