Lot #3 – Oh, the Wonders of Oregon
Domaine Serene & Sokol Blosser

Are you ready for an exquisite Oregon wine experience? Two of the state’s premier wineries have come together to offer the ultimate oenological adventure. First, come to Domaine Serene, a little slice of paradise in the hills of the Willamette Valley. Experience the pastoral tranquility of Oregon’s wine country from the wonderful luxuries of Domaine Serene’s Winery Hill House retreat. Two couples will relax for a three-night stay in this private hideaway. The beautifully-appointed “home away from home” is the perfect place to start your adventures and the ideal sanctuary at the end of a memorable day among the vines. With picturesque views from every vantage and the heart of the valley at your fingertips, you will experience the unique and unspoiled region in grand style. Also included are a bottle each of Domaine Serene Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for each couple to enjoy during the stay as well as a VIP tasting and tour of the winery grounds.

Not far away is Sokol Blosser, one of the pioneering wineries of the region and a key player in the development of the now-prominent Oregon wine industry. The winery is still family owned and operated, with the second generation now at the helm: siblings Alex and Alison Sokol Blosser. These two wunderkinder and their crew are masters of the craft, and they will host you for a splendid day of touring and tasting at the winery.

During your stay, you will also be treated to some of the region’s finest cuisine, with two special dinners at Newberg’s best establishments. First, spend an evening at Recipe, one of Oregon’s premier artisan focused restaurants, known for its thoughtfully prepared wine country cuisine showcasing a seasonally adapted menu. Located in the charm of an old restored Victorian house, Recipe offers a warm and inviting dining experience reminiscent of the home dining room. The next night, let yourselves be pampered by the chef and staff at The Painted Lady. Chef Allen Routt enjoys bringing his varied influences to traditional American dishes using contemporary techniques to lighten them for today’s modern, refined palate. The Painted Lady is more than a restaurant; it’s an experience to remember. And this is a trip that you will never forget.
