Fred gave the four of us an incredible tour to wonderful wineries on a Saturday in May. He really made the trip special by catering to our tastes and bringing us to unique and fantastic wineries. He is a great wealth of Oregon wine knowledge and a great overall guide! He absolutely LOVED the entire day! We wouldn't have had... More

We really had such a great day touring some of the wineries in Oregon with Fred. His knowledge spanned far greater than just wine! He knew all the great stops with all the great people! He even had wonderful pairing snacks for our visits. Thanks so much Fred for showing us such a great time!

Our group of four (three from South Carolina and one from Hawaii) could not have asked for a better day with Fred. Fred picked us up at the Hotel Oregon on a cold...rainy...blustery day in November. Although it might not sound like a perfect day...it WAS! Fred took us to four different wineries that day and because of the weather...often... More

What a wonderful "job" Marie and I have! We get to spend wonderful days with people from all over introducing them to the fine people who make Oregon's spectacular wines. On a rainy/windy day I made 3 new friends who as the tour for them was a day of great memories, they are now warmly in mine. Thank YOU Kerrie... More

The four of us (2local and 2 from the east coast) had a fantastic day with Marie. She helped us plan a day with stops at 5 vineyards: Beaux Freres (a must!), Bergstrom (great!), Domaine Drouhin (our least favorite), White Rose (wonderful!), and DePonte (a last minute addition and gem!). We also went to taste olive oil. Marie is a... More

My husband and I have just returned from a week long trip to Oregon where we had the pleasure of spending a delightful Sunday with Fred from "A Nose for Wine". From the moment we contacted Fred we knew we were in for an amazing day. Not only is Fred the most knowledgeable wine connoisseur that we have EVER had... More

Our wine tours are of course about..."wine.." but boy did Holly & Rudy share some great recipes with me. Food and wine totally go together and I think we spent more time talking parings and old family recipes. Holly you lucky girl...got a wonderful guy that can "cook!" Thanks again for allowing me to spend a magical day with you... More

We had such a good time visiting Pinot country with Fred Gunton. We have done wne tours all over California and this was our first foray into Oregon Pinot Noir country. We were so glad to have Fred as a tour guide. He's so knowledgable and he knows everyone and everything about the area. He took us to some great... More

Fred's Nose was "right on"! He made our party one to remember...for sure! We all enjoyed our wine tour and Fred was so informative that we all finished smarter than we began! We would definitely recommend "A Nose for Wine". Thank you, Fred, for a wonderful day! Shelly and Family

I am still gushing over our fabulous experience with Marie from a Nose for Wine. Her knowledge, humor, fun personality and all around kind heart were just a tip of the iceberg. When you listen to Marie, you are immediately interested in everything she is teaching you and want to learn more. Not only did she bring us to some... More

Where do I begin? From the moment that I spoke to Marie Gunton from A Nose for Wine tours, I knew immediately that she was the "chosen one" for our annual Girls' Wine Tasting tour. Our wine trips of years past were concentrated primarily in the Northern California area: Napa, Sonoma, Paso Robles. The "Wine Girls" decided that it was... More

We are relatively new Portland residents so this was our first trip to Oregon wine country. I depend on Trip Advisor to help me make informed decisions--it once again came through. Fred Gunton was our guide and he was fantastic. This was a birthday gift for one of us and it could not have been a better day. Fred takes... More
