Heard it through the Grapevine...
You may find this interesting - The owners of the Bridgeport Village Shopping Center are interested in opening an indoor market for Oregon vineyards and wineries. It will be located in the Bridgeport Village Shopping Center and will be open during weekends and possibly during weekdays. Let's go shopping!

David O'Reilly, who co-founded Sineann and now is co-owner/winemaker of the highly sought-after Owen Roe wines near Newberg, has always been interested in making wines from Washington state grapes but now, he's making an even bigger move into the Evergreen State. David recently purchased an old dairy that for years served as the winery for Washington Hills and Apex Cellars in Sunnyside with intentions of turning the building into a high-end custom crush facility. Rather than ship all of the Washington fruit to Oregon to produce his wine, he will make a lot of his Washington-based wines at this facility. Don't think O'Reilly is abandoning his Oregon roots, however, since he makes no fewer than four Pinot Noirs, as well as Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon from Oregon grapes.
