- Partake in exclusive experiences with industry experts, sommeliers, chefs, and more, just for Inspirato members
Nestled within Oregon’s picturesque Willamette Valley lies one of the world’s best burgeoning wine regions. More approachable than Sonoma or Napa but just as worthy of recognition, the Willamette Valley is home to world-class pinot noir, chardonnay, and more. Inspirato members can experience the magic of Pacific Northwest wines for themselves at the very start of harvest season with this five-day experience. Members will have the full run of Black Walnut Inn & Vineyard as their home base. They’ll gain a sense of terroir—how a wine’s environmental factors affect its character—with a behind-the-scenes look at harvest season, talking with sommeliers, winemakers, and more. And incredible culinary experiences await, too: a night of bubbles and oysters, a classic Pacific Northwest salmon bake, and more farm-to-table offerings.
