2017 Joyride

Food, Drink & Entertainment

Joyride will offer ample opportunities to sample some of the local fare being perfected throughout Oregon.

There will be a finish-line feast at Stoller Family Estates featuring a bounty of Oregon products, last year’s menu featured:

• Deck Family Farm (Junction City) pasture-raised chicken marinated and grilled onsite with James Gang (Lincoln City) BBQ sauce or twice-baked squash
• Fresh-sliced Grand Central Bakery (Portland) breads with Oregon jams and honey
• Organic mixed greens with hazelnuts from Ken & June’s (St. Paul) and Vincent Family (Bandon) cranberries
• Vinaigrette potato salad with Rogue (Newport) gourmet sea salt
• Grilled seasonal vegetables from Kruger Farms (Sauvie Island)
• Hood River-sourced pear and apple cinnamon crumble with fresh Alpenrose whipped cream

In addition to enjoying good food, you’ll hear great live entertainment. There also will be wine tastings where you can sample some of Stoller Family Estates top wines, including a newly released rose. If you’re in the mood for self-care, there will be massage therapists, physical therapsits and acupuncturist available for appointments.

For those who feel like turning the day into a nighttime affair, Stoller Family Estate will be offering a winemaker’s dinner and winery tour at the vineyard beginning at 5pm. Dinner will include appetizers, three courses, dessert and wine pairings for $85.This requires additional registration and is limited to the first 20 people who sign up. See the 2016 menu here and email James to sign up.

Accommodations

There is no camping allowed at Stoller, but lucky for you there are a number of wonderful places to stay nearby (including these lovely guest houses on premise). Camp sites and yurts are available at Champoeg State Heritage Area. Also consider The Vintages, a collection of mid-century trailers on a lovely property just miles from the event or the bike-friendly and newly-renovated Amity Flats just a little further down the road. On that historic note, go back a little further in time at The Hotel Oregon. Now a McMenamins, this beautiful building has provided a home away from home for travelers since 1905. Looking for something a bit more modern? Try The Inn at Red Hills and continue the wine tasting in charming Dundee, just a short drive from Stoller. Or you could go all out and splurge on a trip to The Allison Inn & Spa in Newberg. We recommend booking early as rooms throughout the area fill quickly in the spring.
