Visited the winery on a Monday afternoon. What a scenic place to sit and sip wine. I am sure this place must be full on sunny weekends. They have amazing views of Mount Hood. Wine was decent but scenery was out of the world.

My girlfriends and I visited Oregon on a girls trip and we spent a day touring wine country. Ruby was by far our favorite vineyard. The wine was delicious and the views were unbeatable. What really made the difference though was our server, Jade. She was so fun to talk to and answered all of our questions (even the dumb ones). We ended up tasting every single wine on the menu :) and there wasn't a bad one! I definitely recommend checking Ruby out!
