Sip Wine at Cathedral Ridge Winery
When you look at Mt. Hood you’ll notice a striking feature, a knife-edge ridge running off the summit to the Northwest, this is the Cathedral Ridge, the famous landmark and namesake of Cathedral Ridge Winery. Owner and Cellarmaster, Robb Bell, purchased Cathedral Ridge Winery (formerly Flerchinger Vineyards) and thought a name with ties to the Columbia Gorge was fitting for a true Oregon winery. While at the Dundee Tasting Room, you can choose from a selection of 25+ award-winning wines, enjoy a personalized barrel tasting, or even peruse our astounding collection of award-winning reserve wines.
Stop by Briar Rose Creamery
After you’ve picked up a bottle or two from Cathedral Ridge, be sure to stop by Briar Rose Creamery for some award-winning cheese, made from hand start to finish. We can’t think of a better pairing than delicious wine & cheese, can you?

Or start your day at Red Hills Market with an espresso and pastries, or mimosas and bloody marys. Pick up your picnic supplies and a few good bottles of local wine and you’re set.
