If you read the Wall Street Journal, then you're probably familiar with the annual Open That Bottle Night celebration created by the Journal's Tastings columnists, John & Dottie. OTBN is an opportunity to open that bottle you've always been saving for that special occasion that just hasn't seemed to arrive.
February 28, 2009, is the 10th annual OTBN, and the Wall Street Journal has some recommendations of where to open that bottle--including one location in the Oregon Wine Country. And we have some recommendations of where to stay after the event. Here's what the Journal reports:
In the Newberg area, choose from 5 member inns: Avellan Inn B&B, Chehalem Ridge B&B, Lions Gate Inn, Springbrook Hazelnut Farm and the University House.
In the McMinnville area, choose from 3 member inns: A' Tuscan Estate, Steiger Haus B&B and Youngberg Hill Vineyards & Inn.
In the Carlton area, choose from 3 member inns: Abbey Road Farm B&B, Lobenhaus Bed Breakfast & Vineyard and the RR Thompson House.
In the Yamhill area, choose from 2 member inns: Hideaway Hill B&B and Yamhill Vineyards Bed and Breakfast.
Wow! What a selection! We hope that your OTBN is a memorable one, wherever you choose to celebrate. And a combination of Winderlea and some fine Oregon Wine Country lodging could be the ticket!
