2011 Spring Wine Guide: Where to dine after exploring Yamhill County wineries

By Grant Butler, The Oregonian

Late spring and early summer can be a glorious time to visit wine country. The chances of getting clear days increase with every turn of the calendar page, and when it’s sunny, you can enjoy dramatic views from the tasting rooms of wineries like Domaine Serene and Lange Estate, which are very picnic-friendly. On dreary days, you’ll want to keep the blanket and the picnic basket in the trunk, and hit one of wine country’s wonderful restaurants for lunch or dinner. If possible, call ahead to ensure a table. The competition for tables at some restaurants can be fierce.

Dundee Bistro: This casual restaurant has more than a decade under its belt, but also fresh ideas in the kitchen thanks to the recent elevation of Christopher Flanagan to executive chef. The emphasis remains on local, of-the-moment ingredients, many of them culled from the Willamette Valley, like a pizza topped with pulled pork or a chicken breast with Oregon chanterelles. While the restaurant is owned by the Ponzi wine family (they also own the adjacent Ponzi Tasting Room and Wine Bar), the wine menu reads like a who’s who of Oregon pinot noir producers.
