Celebrate Valentine’s Day in the Willamette Valley and experience the quiet beauty of Oregon’s premier wine region in winter.  Tasting rooms and wineries are aimed at bringing out the cupid in you with special events which are hard to resist.  And while exploring the picturesque countryside and little towns in the valley, we invite you to make the R. R. Thompson House in Carlton your home base for enjoying this fine wine region.   You will be just a short walk or quick drive from dozens of wineries, many offering special events during Valentine’s Day weekend.  “Fine Wine and Lasting Love” is the theme at Raptor Ridge Winery, Newberg, where the staff is waiting to show off their new winery and tasting room.  At Cana’s Feast, partake in a  “wine country-style” Valentine’s dinner on February 12.  Chef Lisa works magic in the kitchen where she mixes skill and heart for fantastic culinary offerings.  Check out the Willamette Wines website for more special events.  The R. R.  Thompson House offers romantic suites and heart-warming rooms for your enjoyment.
