Reviews of Brooks Wines (Winery)

Erica Wilts

The views at this place are unbeatable. We wanted to try more white wine in the area but found the Riesling a bit sweet for my liking. The fake bird noises were a bit irritating after a while but we did end up staying more than two hours enjoying the views and speaking with the super knowledgeable and friendly staff!

Brooks is an amazing winery with a seemingly great business model. My wife and I had a table at their Thanksgiving/Holiday art & craft event. We were treated like royalty. The staff is friendly, efficient and organized plus very responsive to our needs as well as the customers, from everything I witnessed for the two days we were there. And I haven't mentioned the wine yet, which was excellent! Beautiful views of four mountains and the vineyard also. Just a very warm and welcoming environment!

My favorite vineyard on our trip! We visited June 24th 2016. The view is beautiful. The tasting room atmosphere is relaxed and upscale at the same time. The staff is the most gracious and hospitable I've encountered. It is obvious they love their jobs and live their mission statement. This was our first winery we visited on our trip and remained our favorite out of all we visited. We purchased more wine here than anywhere else during our stay, which goes to show they know their wine! We were pleased to find both reds and whites to sample here. We had the meat and cheese plate and discovered an Olympian brand sausage we love as well as Chef Abbey's Pinot poached cherries. I begged for the recipe. They were so gracious to put up with me. Perhaps I'll still receive it? ;-)

Brooks is an amazing experience. The staff are very accommodating and super friendly. Great stories about the vineyards and their wine. I highly recommend it.

We recently visited Brooks Wines for the first time with our daughter. We sat on the sofas looking out through the vast wall of glass over the vineyards across the valley to the Cascades. The wines are fabulous - dry finishes, wonderful layers, earthy, musical and down right pretty. Service was warm friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a cheese plate and a bottle of Pinot Blanc. We stayed about 3 hours, and will return often. We maintain an inventory of Brooks Wines, Pinot's, Amycus, Pinot Blanc and Reislings - All wonderful.

03/16/19: 4.25 out of 5 - Brooks Winery was established in 1998, and has wonderful Pinot Noirs and Rieslings for a young winery. The tasting room is rustic with a hint of modern, but surprisingly spacious with outside seating with great views. A great thing about Brooks is that there is food available for small-bite comsumption, and a few beer choices. A big plus! The staff are friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Definitely a great winery to try once for tasty Pinot Noirs and Riesling with room for improvements. Enjoy!

Bree Edwards

Fantastic Pinot Noirs. Excellent food and service. Knowledgeable staff. Love the patio and large garden/picnic area. Incredible view of the Willamette Valley.

Carlos Armijo

Great staff, great views... Patio is raised on second story deck, very inviting... Wines, beer, tapas! Absolutely love this place! Go watch"An American Wine Story", then go here. You won't be disappointed!

Lesley Barewin

Amazing wines, great service, we loved the wine tasting and had an excellent charcuterie board. Would go back in a second, off the beaten path.

BEST FOOD EVER! Menu changes Monthly, and I have Never been dissappointed. Great service, fantastic wine, and they have beer on tap. Total win!

Jim Brown

Comfortable setting, friendly service, excellent wines & food. 3 different flights to choose from, great spot for us as my wife loves riesling and I love pinot noir. Also, I highly recommend chef Abby's monthly pairings. Beautiful view when weather is nice.

David Merlino

We had a great time. Wine, food, service, and scenery were all outstanding. Great winery to relax and have some lunch.

Michelle Scotese

Great wine, great food, and great view!!!

Leah Nichaman

The wine and food here are great and the service is exceptional. The servers are knowledgeable and super friendly. The view from the patio is spectacular. Will definitely return when we visit Oregon again.

Grace Deitzler

Firs of all, you can't find a more gorgeous view. Second, the staff was so friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming! Even though it was fairly busy, April was so attentive and had lots of great suggestions for us, getting to know both our tastes and our price range to find a bottle of wine that everyone in the group would love. We ended up with the Amycas White blend and thoroughly enjoyed it (I took a bottle home, too!) It was my first visit here but definitely won't be my last, can't wait to try more of the wines and the food too!

Kristine Rice

The worst greeting experience ever. The greeter said “maybe we can sit you maybe you can get food downstairs. I’m not sure.” We sat ourselves at the bar and shared that we had never been here and were quite confused by the greeter and this server was no better. Clearly volume is their goal not experience or quality. Sent us downstairs and provided no details. We wanders then found downstairs after being pointed the wrong way by the greeter. Customer service is lost by this organization. The food is amazing and is possibly the only saving grace. I can’t say enough bad things about the people that work here. Complete disappointment. Please don’t waste your time. There’s too many wonderful wineries in the area to experience over the lack of professionalism that the Brooks winery staff has.

Micheal Chandler

Beautiful view of Salem, Woodburn, the valley between. They have public/guest Wi-Fi access but I can never remember the password. Does anyone who's used it remember what it was?

Howard Berry

We at the bar,have one tasting,did not came back to see us 20.00 per each tasting.will not go back.

David Sibley

Great staff and wine. Our favorite chill spot!

Rebecca H

Great wines, friendly staff, absolutely beautiful view, and delicious food! We wish we had scheduled a whole afternoon to hang out on the patio!

I've made a mission of visiting as many Willamette valley vintners as possible and originally started North to South. Brooks made me go way south early due to an event of no consequence that put me in touch with them a bit out of order. They and their wines have been nothing if not exemplary. I'm definitely a Burghound/Pinwhoe who goes out of his way to follow a lead. Brooks makes more interesting well-priced distinctive Pinot Noir reds than you can shake your proverbial stick at. Pinot Gris, Riesling, Melon all in there as well, but they have a real homey operation that is very food friendly and their events are to be sought out. The family story is rather special as well. I'll let you list your specifics, but Pinot Noir is very personal so I'll be general in recommending Brooks unabashedly.

Veronica Fernandez

Great view, friendly servers

Todd Van Otterloo

One of our new favorite places to visit in Willamette. The wines are outstanding, the staff incredibly friendly and helpful and the view and tasting room are probably the best of any we've visited. I can't recommend it enough and won't make another trip to Willamette without stopping.

Michael Bates

Always a fascinating place, great food and a legendary story of tragedy and life.

The Reptile

Terrible ! Go for the wine! When you offer salted code with mash potatoes all mixed together please question the chef!! My friend ordered it and couldn’t even take a second bite. When she told the waitress, she said nothing, did nothing, offered nothing...The whole table tasted it and couldn’t finish it for her it was that bad!! The wine didn’t even cover up the taste of bad fish. Don’t go for the food is all I’m saying! Even the cheese plater is sad. How do you mess that up? The staff ehh. But who knows maybe the staff was having a bad day, I hope because they seem not quality like the food.

Lindsey Kerr

Awesome! Our guy was awesome and the wines were amazing!!!

Teresa Thomas

Love Brooks Winery! The view is one in a million the wine and food is fantastic and the staff are so friendly and helpful! A must to visit when driving around the wine country in Yamhill county Oregon.

Ari Kasapyan

Lovely location with excellent views of the winery from the modern tasting room. Everyone in the group found something they really liked from the tasting menu. The menu was decent, but the charcuterie plate could have included more variety for it to really stand out when compared to other wineries. More local cheeses perhaps?

Terry Stratoudakis

Excellent environment, you don't get rushed, and of course great wines!

Neal Ziring

Friendly and helpful wine tasting staff, very comfortable room. Also had a pretty good selection of food.

Sheri Gustaveson

Loved it, great wines, knowledgeable people. Definitely ordering some of the wines sampled.

Marguerite Boyd

Lovely setting, great wine, wonderful food & really friendly staff

Rick Stillwagon

Beautiful venue for an intimate event.

Cedric Nash

Dayson, Amber, Brandon, and the entire Brooks staff are very passionate about the winery and it's great history! They love to share with you the stories and experiences that make Brooks a top level winery. The wines are fantastic! I highly recommend this winery!

G Rosen

Brooks Winery is an absolute gem! The menu is fantastic, wine selection is dangerously delicious, and the service is unparalleled. We were visiting a more prominent winery in the area and when we asked for a recommendation about where to go next, they suggested Brooks, and they certainly did not let us down. To be recognized by the public is one thing, but Brooks has a wonderful reputation with their colleagues / competition as well, which speaks volumes. During our visit, we had the pleasure of meeting Allison, Jackie, and Amber - all are gracious, knowledgeable, and unobtrusively attentive. Allison was our main server and we were blown away with her service. Allison did a fantastic job educating us about their story and commitment to organic and biodynamic farming, while still being authentic, funny, and engaging. She also gave us some great restaurant recommendations in Portland. Honestly, Allison's hospitality was so lovely that we would have come back even if we didn't like the wine. Brooks has a lot of things going for them - an approachable and unique wine list, great food pairings, cool ambiance, a beautiful view, etc - but what we can’t stop raving about is the service. Major kudos to the entire team, we really appreciate you!

Krystal Cummings

Lovely winery and tasting room. We got a red and white flight and everything we tried was good to buy-able.

Lance Lighty

Great venue, great wine

Chas Thomas

I could wax poetic about my recent (and first!) visit to Brooks. What a scenic property, comfortable tasting room, mouth watering selection of wines, and knowledgeable/friendly staff. A special thank you to Chelsea who provided us with such a positive experience! I work in the TR at Sokol Blosser and I cannot wait to recommend Brooks.

Tim Swearingen

What a wonderful Winery/Vineyard. Great heated outdoor patio and even better Wine. Friendly and attentive staff. Would recommend to any wine aficionado. I will be returning soon.

Tim Duerfeldt

Location ,service knowledgeable, variety of taste options

Becca Bidwell

Really great food. Good wine. Will definitely be back soon

Kiki Chmielewski

The views from the back deck and patio areas are absolutely stunning. Also, some of the best Pinot Noirs around. Our server was very knowledgeable about the neighboring vineyards and just the right amount of attentive. Would definitely visit again!

Megan Elliott

Beautiful facilities and bomb white and red wines!

brook henry

View of a lifetime, yes. Friendly service, yes. Menu.... superb. But left completely let down after they denied to sell a “third” bottle to us a couple. They said they have policy to limit one bottle purchased per person. We purchased two separately as a couple and were not allowed to purchase any more wine. I felt like we were being watched by the greeter who was clearly taking tabs on who was with who and who bought what. It was awkward and uncomfortable. Will not be returning.

Tom D

We loved Brooks winery. We went here because my wife loves Riesling’s, and they had a great selection. The charcuterie went well with our wine tasting and the views are great!
