Wingman Metrics
The Dundee Bistro’s official website now says “CLOSED” and thanks guests for 26 years in Oregon wine country. Do not plan a wine visit based on the historical selections on this page. The site does not supply a current wine menu or a reopening date.
The list runs roughly 150-250 selections with Oregon Pinot Noir as the undeniable anchor — and rightly so, since some of the state's most important producers are practically neighbors. Archery Summit, Domaine Drouhin Oregon, Ponzi Vineyards, and Chehalem all show up, giving you a genuine cross-section of Willamette Valley's top tier rather than a random grab bag. International selections round out the edges, so if someone at your table wants to go off-script into Burgundy or Barolo, there's room to do that. The gaps are minimal — this is a focused list with intention behind every slot.
With 12-20 pours on rotation, the by-the-glass program is more than an afterthought — it's a legitimate way to work through the valley's greatest hits without committing to a full bottle. Argyle Winery's sparkling program makes a strong case for opening with bubbles, which is exactly the right call when you're dining in wine country. The rotation appears to track with the season, so what's in the glass reflects what's actually drinking well right now.
Chehalem Pinot Gris — null
Chehalem is one of the Willamette Valley's most underrated producers, and their Pinot Gris consistently punches above its price point — crisp, textured, and food-friendly in a way that the big Pinot Noirs on this list simply aren't. Order it with the pasta and you'll wonder why you ever fought over the Burgundy budget.
Argyle Winery Sparkling Wine
Most people come to the Dundee Bistro locked in on Pinot Noir and skip right past Argyle's bubbles, which is a mistake. Argyle has been making serious méthode traditionnelle sparkling wine in the Willamette Valley for decades — it belongs on your table before the food arrives, not as an afterthought on someone's birthday.
Archery Summit Pinot Noir
Archery Summit makes great wine — no argument there — but it's also one of the most recognized names on the list, which means the restaurant has no incentive to price it aggressively. You're paying for the label recognition at this point. Put that money toward something less famous and equally good elsewhere on the list.
Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir + Homemade pasta
Domaine Drouhin's Oregon Pinot brings that Burgundian restraint and earthy depth that cuts right through rich, butter-forward pasta without bulldozing it. It's the pairing that makes you feel like the kitchen and the cellar were designed together — because in a place like this, they basically were.
The Bottom Line
The official site identifies The Dundee Bistro as closed. The wine selections described here are historical context, not current availability. This notice does not establish a closure date or a future reopening.
Pearl District · Portland · Italian/Mediterranean
A restaurant list with 15 pours by the glass from $11 to $17 and a bottle list from 40 to 1100, split by country. Start with the Hacienda Lopez de Haro Rioja Crianza '22 at $12, or the Tenuta di Lilliano Chianti Classico '22 at $16 alongside the Radiatore, and confirm prices because the list is undated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Southeast Portland · Portland · Charcuterie/American
A charcuterie restaurant with a natural-leaning wine list and a 12-pour glass list on the dinner menu. Start with the $14/glass Hoppenot gamay, or split the $55 Stick Figurine orange wine across a board, and confirm current availability. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
King · Portland · Spanish
A Spanish tapas-bar wine page with glass and bottle prices from 13/50 and a ten-sherry list. Start with the Pago del Cielo Celeste Verdejo at 13 a glass, try the chilled Vara y Pulgar Tintilla at 17 if you want something different, and order the Miquel Pons Cava with the croquetas. The page says the posted menu may differ from the restaurant's, so confirm prices. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown · Portland · New American with Asian Influences
A long list sorted by style, with glass pours from $9.50 to $20, a Coravin tier above that, and bottles that climb to $750. Start with the A to Z at $13.50 or the Roederer Estate Brut at $20, and confirm current prices because the list isn't dated. This unrated guide covers the posted wine list, not service, storage or markups.
Alberta Arts · Portland · Italian
An Italian-leaning bottle list with an Oregon side, and no glass pours posted. Order the $65 Bow and Arrow Gamay, or the $65 Keltis 'Zan White' Slovenian Orange Blend if you want an orange wine, and confirm availability. This unrated guide covers the posted Spring & Summer ’26 beverage menu, not service, storage or markups.
Downtown · Portland · Steakhouse
A steakhouse with a short posted wine offering and an active event calendar. Take the $5.50 Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling or the $8 Seven Falls Cabernet during the 3PM to 6PM happy hour in the bar, and ask for the full list since none is posted. This unrated guide covers the posted wine offerings, not service, storage or markups.
