Argyle Named Best Winery Tasting Room and Best Oregon Wine in Willamette Week’s 2025 Best of Portland Awards

DUNDEE, Ore. (July 23, 2025) – Argyle Winery is excited to announce that it has been honored as the “Best Winery Tasting Room” and “Best Oregon Wine” in Willamette Week’s 2025 Best of Portland Readers’ Poll. Over 31,000 readers participated in the poll and more than 375,000 votes were cast to determine the winners. Argyle and the other Best of Portland winners will be celebrated in Willamette Week’s widely read Best of Portland issue, which will be on the stands beginning today, July 23. In addition to featuring the winners of the Best of Portland Readers’ Poll, the special issue spotlights the editorial team’s favorite places and things to do in Portland.

Founded in 1987, Argyle was Oregon’s first winery dedicated to producing sparkling wine and has played a pivotal role in the emergence of the Willamette Valley as one of the world’s great sparkling wine regions. While Argyle is famed for its sparkling wines and has been hailed as “the beacon of Oregon sparkling-wine” by Wine & Spirits, and “Oregon’s best-known Champagne-method sparkling wine house” by The Wall Street Journal, the winery is also known for its Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings, and is the only American winery to have made Wine Spectator’s annual “Top 100” list of the world’s greatest wines in three categories: red, white and sparkling.

“Our roots in Oregon and the Willamette Valley go back almost 40 years, so it is a wonderful honor to be recognized by Willamette Week’s readers as both the Best Winery Tasting Room and Best Oregon Wine,” said Argyle Brand and Marketing Manager Elizabeth Clark. “As a proud Oregon winery, it means the world to us to be recognized and celebrated by the community we call home.”

While Argyle has earned fame for its stunning, place-driven wines, it is equally known for its gracious hospitality and is widely recognized for setting the standard for Oregon wine tasting experiences. Located just 30 minutes west of Portland in the charming town of Dundee, the Argyle Tasting House offers spacious indoor and outdoor seating that invites visitors to gather and relax. Guests to the Argyle Tasting House may select from several elevated tasting options, including the Masters of Sparkling experience, which focuses on the winery’s acclaimed sparkling program, and a Library Experience, which features rare wines from Argyle’s cellar alongside current releases. Throughout the year, the Tasting House also hosts an array of experiential, educational, artistic and philanthropic events that reflect Argyle’s deep ties to the Oregon arts community and its support of organizations that include PDX Jazz, Pacific Northwest College of Art, Portland Opera and Portland Center Stage.
