Reception
In Eater Portland 2019 list of "Portland's Unreal Wine Bars", Alex Frane and Brooke Jackson-Glidden wrote, "Often used as a wedding venue, this lofty and bright urban winery has an underrated food menu, with everything from dandelion caesars to foraged-mushroom-laden pastas. Cooper's Hall's wines come from a massive wall of taps, a more sustainable alternative to the typical collection of bottles that also allows for easy tastings."
