Most wine tastings are designed to be relaxing, but the Oregon Wine Country tour through Pedal Bike Tours of Portland will definitely have you working up a thirst before enjoying any wine.
Pedal Bike Tours of Portland offers several other tours by bike, including visits to breweries, the coast and downtown areas, but for the most part, these tours are marked as having "flat" terrain—whereas the Oregon Wine Country tour is described as "hilly." This wine tour is definitely not a leisurely ride through something flat like California's Napa Valley and this tour is probably best suited for those who are both wine and cycling enthusiasts.
The tour package covers 10 miles over the span of about five hours and costs $89 per person, with an additional $10-15 for each wine tasting session.
