I love this place! Lots of variety to enjoy from oils, a little nature walk, sheep, olive mill, nursery, and of course wine! I always bring my company here!!

Definitely worth a stop when in wine country. So much more than wine... olive oils, lavender, cutie gift shop, nursery. BUT if you are going to enjoy the wine, grab a couple of Adirondack chairs, sit back and relax. Such a beautiful view.

We are olive oil club members. They also have a wine club. Family owned and run. Nursery & gift shop too. Great place to visit.

The best olive oil I could probably taste short of flying to Italy. And the balsamic is incredible.

Amazing vineyard! We ended up doing the atv tour and had Paul as our tour guide who was very knowledgeable about the process and the history of the farm. The farm was beautiful and the wines were amazing. We ended shipping a bunch of wines and olive oils back to us.

We had the BEST experience with Paul as our ATV tour guide! He made it such a fun morning for us and our son. So much education, so much good wine, and even a special lemonade for our kiddo. This place is absolutely gorgeous and we are so happy that a friend recommended it.

We visited Durant during our visit to the Willamette Valley for wine tasting, olive oil tasting, and to tour the grounds. They have a beautiful mile long trail around the perimeter that’s free to walk, a number of infused oils to taste for free as well, and a great setting for their wine tasting.At our wine tasting we had excellent service. Both very accommodating and very knowledgeable. We visited a number of wineries, but decided to buy a number of bottles from Durant as the experience was just so positively memorable. Highly recommend Durant as a destination for when visiting the Willamette Valley.*Note* We did not stay at Durant so are not eating their accommodations.Food & drinks: We loved the wine and the food - great all around.

In short:Olive oils, vinegars, nursery plants, walking paths, fresh lemonade, gift shop. You KNOW you either have a relative/friend who would love this, or it's your kind of thing. I've never been anywhere that comes even close to doing what they do as well as they do it. In long:I'm a new convert to the delights of Oregon wine country, and I very much include this place in an itinerary for exploring the area. I believe there's a connected winery but we focused entirely on the non-alcoholic stuff.You pull up across rolling hills and winding roads and park in gravel. The landscaping is everywhere. Much of it is trees from before anything got built here, but they have planted hundreds of decorative specimens. In spring and summer this place feels like a jungle made of leafy PNW trees, plants, and shrubs. You wander through a gift shop, past dozens of plants for sale. All vigorous, healthy specimens. Lots of nice choices, more than just foliage and flowers--lots of herbs and other food plants, too. The gift shop isn't the biggest part of the operation, but they have decor, flower pots, and other things that you might not see everywhere. Chances are you will find something for a mom, grandma, or other relative you need to shop for. Prices are a little higher (it IS a gift shop) than elsewhere, but the items are also nicer and more unique (it's a cool gift shop for fans of these kinds of things).Out in the gravel courtyard, under the awning, is where the most-interesting feature sits. There's a tasting bar lined with a couple dozen olive oils and vinegars. Even if you don't expect to make your own salad dressings and emulsions and whatnot, you can taste this stuff and easily imagine dunking bread in them before a meal. Blend 'em up! Mix an oil and a vinegar. You can't believe how good the flavors are, and finding the mixes you like feels like discovering something. I checked us all in here and immediately got a comment from an old friend about how amazing everything they do is, and how she's wanted to visit here for years. I can't imagine not coming back here now that I've been. We left with 4 oils, 3 vinegars, and 5 hot sauces. We nearly bought my sister some plants and other things, too, but she beat us to the punch and bought us stuff first. She and her BF said the walking paths are gorgeous and pretty much a light stroll. This place is amazing for the food geek, and none of the little tourist-trap angles to it are off-putting at all. We hung out and people-watched for easily 30 minutes. It's such a relaxing, happy setting.
