Spent over 1.5 hours there tasting and chatting. The tasting room is very inviting, and we did feel like family, as many of the other reviews here said. We went to several wineries in northwestern Oregon on our vacation, and this one was by far and away the best, both in atmosphere and friendliness and in the quality of the... More

Frank and John were quite entertaining and knowledgeable of the winery as well as the surrounding sights and attractions. They were funny and accommodating hosts which made for a delightful experience on a random Saturday afternoon. We were able to taste several different wines for free with a bottle purchase and I quite enjoyed the Cabernet Sauvignon. Overall experience was... More

We visited Nehalem Bay Winery and could not have been treated better! Ray Shackleford (the owner) was pouring wine for us before we even asked! We weren't treated as customers, but as friends. We met Ray and John (the manager) and enjoyed talking with them while sampling their wine. My wife and I are fans of mead, and Ray's is... More

I have visited several wineries over the years and have never been made to feel as unwelcome as I did here

Peach wine is always my favorite. But I have grown fond of the Hard Apple Cider, it is seasonal but always worth it. The staff is so welcoming and genuine! I can't say enough good, one of my favorite places to go out of the way for! :)

As me and three friends hitchhiked down Highway 101, we were picked up by Ray Shackelford. He stopped, had us pile in and took us to his winery. My first response to seeing the land was just feeling at ease, not very hard with the view of the mountains. Meeting the workers, I was struck by their generousness. WE learned... More
