The stylists in Mod Salon nextdoor (trustworthy on all matters) spoke very highly of this place - free food nights, good membership deals, etc. All accolades were confirmed upon a chance encounter on a slightly drunken Sunday afternoon. I was confused at first - rather than being a wine bar, it literally has the vibe of a winery, except in the city. First, the servers were extremely friendly and accommodating - adjusted the flights to whatever we wanted. Second, the wine was truly delicious - and interesting. The servers were also knowledgeable and very willing to engage in education/conversation. Then we ordered a charcuterie plate - really really delicious. And, again, a server explained each item on the plate in detail and with passion. Our only disappointment was that the system doesnt allow for tips - thus, my review. Shane and Daniel were central in making our experience stellar.

First and foremost I LOVE the food Chef Max makes. Everything is slightly edgy but still totally accessible for non-foodie types. You MUST attend one of their "Date Nights" or monthly brunches! Tesoaira wine is award winning for a reason! I think the thing that makes this place stand out compared to other wine tasting rooms is it is sooo NOT pretentious! I know nothing about wine really other than I like to drink it and all the staff there are ok with that :) Speaking of staff they are just all so friendly and kind and super knowledgeable. Great place for chilling and enjoying great food and great wine.

Wine shops are popping up all over, but this one is worth checking out. Teosaria is a family-owned business, which I like. The vineyard itself is near Roseburg. They have a large variety of award-winning wines to try in flights with accompanying tapas/snacks - just a little bit of food to make you appreciate the wine more, and keep you from getting totally wasted. Theres plenty of walkable places nearby for more food, after youve whetted your palette. Occasionally the service is slow, which is something they need to work on. Definitely get a Bulls Blood in your flight, just to hear the story.

This is my favorite spot in all of Portland, my husband, friends, and I all live very close by and consequently frequent Tesoaria enough to know and be known by the staff. They are super knowledgeable about different wines and they typically have very unique varietals, but they are so down to earth and really want to share their experience and knowledge with you. The food is amazing, and pairs perfectly with their wines. We recently joined the wine club, which is probably one of the best wine club deals you can get. We love this place, feels like home!

We will never buy wine anywhere else. Laura was so generous with her knowledge and skills. Once you dive deep, this winery has some very complex offerings. The food is light as it should be to find the perfect pairing. Lovely place, Id like to give it a remodel though so it was either totally industrial or warm and welcoming...its floundering between both. Its an excellent afternoon spot to bring friends to explore the offerings of the NW.

Im just an average wine drinker, and after trying the wine here, I joined. The staff is very knowledgeable, and the food is truly amazing. If you can go to one of the special food/pairings events, go! This is a place youll enjoy going again and again. Ive already made arrangements to go 3 more times with various co-workers and friends. Thanks John, Joy, Laura and Max.

From the moment I walked in I was greeted with a welcome wine and the server was very knowledgeable on their wine selection and he knew my taste preference from the few things I told him. I tried the wine flight he selected and was amazed by how sweet and delicious it was. I want to buy a whole case of the Bella Bianca! The food was delicious as well.

Delivering delight! Super friendly staff and a great list of happiness to choose from! If you have been on a local hunt for petit Verdot or sparkling ... Ding, ding, ding you are winning! Such a rarity to find locally made sparkling a, and not one but three varietals, divine! If you are snacking, try out their simply amazing Comte cheese crackers!

Excellent wine knowledge by staff. Refreshing to get information on the wine, instead of educating. Small plates are a palate pleasing enhancer for wine flights. Live music on Saturday nights is eclectic and classic Portlandia. Not in to much hipster East Portland fare, but this is a must visit for local and tourist alike.

Came here on our trip to Portland, and it was the highlight of our trip! John was extremely friendly and very generous with his pours. We stayed for over two hours and probably each had a full bottle in just tastings! We never felt pressured into buying anything, and overall it was a night to remember.

I dont usually write reviews, but this place deserves recognition. Great place to sit down, sample some wine and buy a bottle or two that you fancy. The prices are great and the staff is very agreeable. I keep coming back despite the 3 hour drive.

Servers are highly knowledgeable and generous with tastings - super delicious wine and snacks, and tasting flights are totally affordable. They also do a wood fired pizza night once a week (I think Tuesdays?) that sounded incredible! :)

Tried the white and red flights. All were very tasty, but the whites were amazing given the tune of year. Especially liked the vermentino, so much so, I bought a bottle. They were very helpful and informative. Definitely worth a stop.

Great wine, excellent food, amazing stories, and awesome people. Bottling your own wine from one of their love barrels is a neat experience. If you havent been here yet do not wait any longer!
