The folks at Flying Dutchman Winery have been producing top-quality wines on the Oregon coast since 1997.
Flying Dutchman Winery/Facebook During the fall grape crush, the crushed grapes are kept in open containers where they’re exposed to the salt air and cool temperatures of the coast for 7-10 days. This unique fermentation environment lends a unique taste to the wine.
It’s too chilly on the coast for grapes to grow properly, so Flying Dutchman Winery gets all its grapes from local Oregon vineyards.
