A Visit to Marchesi Vineyards in Hood River

Marchesi VineyardsOne Sunday afternoon in March, my husband and I decided to visit Marchesi Vineyards in Hood River. On our drive we each texted friends to get recommendations for a good place to stop and enjoy a glass of wine. Both friends replied “Go to Marchesi,” so that’s where we went. It was our first time trying any of the vineyards in Hood River, but we had heard so many great things from our friends that we were eager to experience it for ourselves.

Since we hadn’t had lunch yet, we decided to also get the salami and cheese platter with our wine flight. Everything was delicious and for just about $30 we enjoyed a nice little date in the Gorge.

The ambiance was just okay in my opinion. I had heard great things about their outdoor patio. However, during our visit, it was still very cold outside and the porch was closed in with plastic sheets. It kind of took away from the rustic outdoor feeling, but I understand why they put them up. The space heaters felt great and kept us plenty warm. I noticed several people using the provided thick blankets to keep the chill off their legs. I thought was a fantastic idea. One group of customers seated near us was playing of Settlers of Catan, a game we love to play too. The overall vibe was fairly chill and relaxed. I look forward to returning to Marchesi Vineyards when the weather is warmer and we can take in the view from the patio.
