One of the best winery’s in southern Oregon. A must stop when in the area! The wines are awesome and nicely priced. A must stop when in Southern Oregon ! A nice way to spend a leisurely Sunday afternoon. Staff is awesome! Always go the extra step.

We recently visited our friends who live in Grants Pass, Oregon. When they told us that we should go and visit wineries in nearby Applegate Valley, we looked at them with a kind smile that meant to portray: «We live near Napa & Sonoma Valley, do you really think your vineyards can reach our expectations?» Yet when we actually started our tour, we quickly realized that Applegate Valley will probably soon be a common wine reference as are the wine regions at home After a great lunch at ‘Peace of Pizza’, we spent a lovely afternoon in the garden of Troon Vineyards. Seriously, it was perfect: we spread out on the lawn: the adults, the kids and our dog. The kids played bocci ball and/or explored the garden, while the adults exchanged stories over a bottle of Druid’s Fluid. Admittedly, I’m by no means a wine expert, but that bottle was great and reasonably priced. This visit will always be very memorable to me… if I see a bottle of their wines in the supermarket I will likely get one to relive that sunny afternoon in wonderful Applegate Valley…

This was by far our favorite winery of the day. Everything was delicious! My cousin even signed up for a wine membership there, Im so jealous! I thought they had the best prices from the wineries as well. The staff were so friendly and informative. They also have some very tasty mustards and jellies to try as well. Beautiful facility, beautiful grounds, fantastic wine at a great price.

I have been going to this place for years… the views are great with the vineyards all around. I always go for a visit each time I am back in the Applegate Valley, which is usually about twice a year. The cabs are my favorite. did anyone say Vertical? Of course any of the Druids Fluid is a must!

First of all I’ve never had experienced such horrible customer service in a long time from a «highly known winery«. I called in advance because I have a friend who is coming to visit and specifically wanted to go to Troon and I have not been there yet myself so we wanted to both experience it. So I called to get some information on tours if available, prices and hours and such. So I pick up the phone and dial the number and on the other line all I receive«Hi this is Erica»… and then there was a pause. I then asked is this Troon Vineyard? and She replied yes is all. Now since this is a well known establishment I figured I would have received«Hi this is Erica at Troon How may I help you?» However, nothing near that was said. To me that is highly unprofessional. Then I proceed to ask about if they offer tours and prices. She kept asking me that I need to be more specific. I’m thinking well that is the whole reason I’m calling right? To get more information. Then proceeded to ask me 3 times if I was over the age of 18. Like I was lying and calling for the fun of it. Not to mention I had asked if she could ask her manager if you could call me back with prices if I had a group of 8 people. That was over 3 weeks ago. Guess what? NO call back. I am extremely disappointed because I really wanted to go and visit but after this phone call experience I can’t only imagine what the service is like in person. Needless to say I will never go there and make sure everyone know my experience. I hope that woman either gets fired or needs some serious training on customer service! That or she is clearly not in the right business.

Great wine! I love the scenery & ambience here. The tasting room is immaculate, and the outdoor space is equally as gorgeous. On, nice Southern Oregon days I love getting a glass(or bottle to share) to drink outside. Last time I was there, I was pleasantly surprised that they let my 5 month old puppy go with me inside and outside on the grounds. I am forever indebted to Troon for that experience, and Remy(my puppy) adored it even more! The wines are superb, and are definitely above the average in the southern oregon, and applegate area. I am a huge fan of winemaker Herb Quady’s unique style, and my taste buds can definitely tell when he has had a strong influence on a wine! Overall, I love every wine that they do, from their whites, blends, reds and to their Ports! The Rafting Guide Red really stands out to me, that is a very fun and approachable wine, and I like the southern oregon reference of the river lifestyle as well.

Having been to all the local wineries around at one time or another for some odd reason I hadn’t made it out to Troon until recently with some family in from out of town. It was our last stop after a fairly long day tasting and was a perfect place to sit and relax before heading home. I had tried their wines at taste of Ashland and was impressed(love the druids fluid) but I do believe they taste even better when sitting in the beautiful tasting room and looking out on the vines!

I first visited Troon when winetasting with my sister over Thanksgiving. We made our way along the Applegate wine trail and Troon was by far our favorite, not only for the location/scenery, but for the awesome staff and(of course) the wine! As soon as we walked in, the owner Chris greeted us and personally poured for us. The wine is super yummy and definitely a mainstay in my wine cellar. I live in San Francisco/Napa so have high standards for what a winery and wine should be, and Troon exceeds expectations every time. A must see on your next visit to So Oregon!

This is an absolutely amazing establishment. From the friendly, educated staff to the unique and delicious wine. With every visit to Troon, lasting memories are made. Whether you’re headed out with a group of girls or trying to impress the in-laws, Troon is a perfect spot to sample some of Oregon’s best wine. Salut!

I wish I could tell you about the wines at Troon. They are a very popular winery here in S. Oregon, but I have never tasted their wines and likely never will. We stopped by the winery/vineyard in Applegate on our way home from Grants Pass one day. It was a weekend and the tasting room was busy. Apparently it was so busy that the staff could not be bothered to acknowledge our existence or to bother their existing customers to make room at the counter for more tastings. Or to come out from behind the counter to offer to do a tasting elsewhere in the tasting room or on the outdoor patio. We waited around for a good 10+ minutes before we just left after being completely ignored. We will not be going back. We stopped at another local winery and shared our experience, which they stated didn’t come as a suprise as they often have people share similar stories with them. Unfortunate, but I agree with another reviewer: CUSTOMERS are your livlihood and if you do not provide service you will lose customers. You lost me.

This vineyard has become one of our favorites not just for their great wines, but for the wonderful service we received in the tasting room. The lady(from Prescott, AZ) who was pouring the wines was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made us feel very welcomed from the moment we step in the tasting room.

We visited Troon shortly after New Year’s. It was very quiet, one other group showed up as our group of 9 was leaving, otherwise no one else was around. Beautiful setting, buildings are well appointed, with decent landscaping. The chalkboard tables were a fun choice, along with lovely art and interiors. The lady pouring our tasting was very pleasant and did a good job introducing the wines. The wine itself was enjoyable, simple and straightforward, not particularly complex, but very nice open flavors. A few detractors for an otherwise very pleasant time: it would be nice to have some small food dishes availabe to go with the wine, also although it was a nice place for Southern Oregon, the wine presentation was a bit more pretentious than the wine itself deserved. A lovely place, and we’d happily return. And, the wine must have been better than I thought, seeing as we brought half a dozen bottles back across the country with us.(of course, that may speak more to the low quality of swill that is passed off as wine in Pennsylvania!)

I’ve done my fair share of winery visits throughout California so when the opportunity came to visit Southern Oregon wineries, I jumped at the chance. I was not disappointed in what they have to offer and one of the wineries that stood out was Troon Vineyard. They have an absolutely beautiful property and I was pleasantly surprised with the lunch and dinner options they have on their«Troon to Table» menu. While we didn’t eat there, the food we saw looked amazing. When we arrived, it was fairly busy at the tasting bar but that didn’t stop Chris from getting us set right up. Their tasting flight consisted of two whites and the rest were red wines. White wines aren’t my bag so I only tasted the 2010 dry Riesling and it was good but too sweet for my palate. The reds here were the best I tasted out of the 6 wineries we visited that day. The Druid’s Fluid(love the name!) was a perfect mix of Merlot, Zin and Cabernet Sauvignon. I will be back to get some of that stuff because it was outstanding. Because I don’t have a favorite varietal, I always tend to love the blends wherever I go. The 2007 Humbug Fire reserve cab made my legs melt. And, how awesome is it that they donate a portion of the proceeds of this wine to the firefighters who fight the wild fires in the area? As wonderful as all the wines here were, I left with one bottle of their 2009 Kubli Bench Zinfandel. It topped the scale but definitely came very close to all the others as my favorite. If money were no object and space(I’m borderline a candidate to be on an episode of «Hoarders» for my wine collection), I would have taken home much more. But, I’ll definitely be back!

Troon is one of our favorite places to go for a nice afternoon break. The location is peaceful, the people are very nice, the wine is wonderful, and the food is perfect. Highly recommend it.

What a lovely winery! After many visits to their Carlton location, I finally made it to the actual winery. We had purchased a passport for wine tasting, but their fee is only $ 5 for a flight of 6, and you can add their reserves for $ 2 more. Being familiar with their wines, I also asked about a couple of my favorites that weren’t on the list and they were happy to pour a taste of those for us as well. We enjoyed tasting a variety of wines and had a wonderful meal sitting outside. There aren’t many lunch options in the area, and this was wonderful spot to sit and have a glass of wine and bite to eat. Everyone in the both tasting room and bistro was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the wines and their history.

We were tasting in the Applegate Valley 10/30/2010. Most wineries post a tasting fee and also credit back to a bottle price. This winery did not post a fee or mention one. Charged us $ 5.00 per person even though one person had one sip and did not credit the fee to the bottle we purchased. When I asked about it the sales person was snippy and said that it was«customary». We had tasted that day at four other wineries and two did and two did not charge. When the charged it was posted or immediately stated. I will NOT return or recommend them in any way.
