点评:Our Amity VRBO hosts highly recommended Bryn Mawr as one of the tasting rooms to visit during our short stay. There are over 500 vineyards in the Willamette Valley, so selecting a winery that comes recommended with wines we enjoy is important. We arrived at Bryn Mawr early in the afternoon of a somewhat rainy weekday. The entire outdoor area was empty, and a couple of tables indoors had patrons seated. We stood at the counter and met the gentleman obviously trying to serve people who asked us politely to wait until he closed out a couple of tabs, cash in hand, looking a bit overwhelmed. We were happy to look around and wait patiently until he was ready for us to seat ourselves. As we were looking at the tasting list, and discussing how fun it would be to have such a nice range of wines to try, a woman approached us, standing behind the counter. She was eating, and covering her mouth as she was talking to us. She asked if we had reservations (and we worked hard not to smirk because the place was nearly empty). We said no, and she responded that she could sell us a glass of wine or a bottle, but not tasting. We politely responded "we will go elsewhere then" and we did. We went down the hill to Bethel Heights for an AMAZING tasting: great wine, great views, and wonderful staff. Perhaps it was Kismet the gal at Bryn Mawr pushed us out the door! I have enjoyed wine tastings and purchased fine wines from all around the world, and in very busy wine regions in California, Washington, and Oregon. And I have never been treated so rudely as I was with my husband at Bryn Mawr. We will never go back.
翻译:我们的 Amity VRBO 房东强烈推荐布林茅尔作为我们短暂停留期间要参观的品酒室之一。威拉米特谷有 500 多个葡萄园,因此选择一家推荐我们喜欢的葡萄酒的酒庄非常重要。我们在一个有点下雨的工作日下午早些时候到达了布林茅尔。整个室外区域都空无一人,室内的几张桌子上坐着顾客。我们站在柜台前,遇到了一位先生,他显然是在为顾客服务,他礼貌地要求我们等到他结完几张账,手里拿着现金,看起来有点不知所措。我们很高兴环顾四周,耐心等待,直到他准备好让我们入座。当我们看着品酒单,讨论着有这么多好酒可以品尝会是多么有趣时,一位站在柜台后面的女士走了过来。她正在吃东西,一边和我们说话一边捂着嘴。她问我们是否预订了座位(我们努力不露出笑容,因为那里几乎空无一人)。我们说没有,她回答说她可以卖给我们一杯或一瓶葡萄酒,但不能品尝。我们礼貌地回答说“那我们去别的地方吧”,然后我们就去了。我们下山去了伯特利高地,品尝了一场令人惊叹的美酒:美酒、美景和优秀的员工。也许是布林茅尔学院的 Kismet 把我们赶出了门!我喜欢品酒,也喜欢从世界各地购买优质葡萄酒,以及加利福尼亚、华盛顿和俄勒冈州非常繁忙的葡萄酒产区。我从来没有像在布林茅尔学院和我丈夫那样受到如此粗鲁的对待。我们再也不会回去了。
