Don't be bummed if it literally rains on your parade

McMinnville and the surrounding Willamette Valley has a mild year-round climate, making it the ideal destination for nature-lovers. It's warm in the summer (but rarely hot) and cool in the winter (but never snows), so it's the perfect place to cozy up in a light sweater and just enjoy your surroundings. The rainy season starts in November and lasts through March, but expect to get a bit wet all through the year. It's part of the charm of the Pacific Northwest, so just pack an umbrella and don't let the rain get in the way.

Ancient lava plus volcanic soil equals perfect pours

Thanks to the nearby Cascade Mountains, ancient lava flows have left McMinnville with volcanic soil that is perfect for producing full-bodied red, white, rose, and sparkling wines. There's plenty of walking to be done throughout the Willamette Valley -- whether you prefer to traipse through one of the many beautifully-manicured parks, or go urban hiking downtown, stopping only in wineries. The jagged, sandy beaches of the Pacific Coast are about an hour west, should the need for some salty sea air strike your fancy.
