We have a variety of ways to help you host a great party, meeting, or other event at ENSO. Groups as small as 20 and as large as 120 can be accommodated. It’s a great chance to show off wines made in PDX in a vibey, casual environment. We have food and beer options and can tailor the party to your specific needs. Let us help you host your special event right here in our Barrel Room or the entire space. Our Barrel Room can accommodate 40 seated or 60 standing. For groups larger than 60, we’re happy to combine both the Tasting Lounge and Barrel Room. Our urban-rustic aesthetic is both warm and industrial. Many great ventures begin in garages—ours certainly did! But they seldom stay there forever. So we upgraded. Our big “garage” in the Buckman neighborhood is our forever home. We opened our doors Memorial Day weekend of 2011. When we began this venture called ENSO, we decided that it made the most sense to keep things small, efficient and manageable. That way, we could create fantastic wines at lower costs and give more attention to each small lot. Even as we grow, we keep our vision in mind. We keep things as small-scale as possible: Human-sized stainless steel tanks, small fermentation bins, and no-bigger-than-we-need crush equipment. This allows us to experiment, to care for each batch separately, and to create complexity in our small space. We have chosen to source grapes from the finest vineyards up and down the west coast. Three states. All states that we have lived in. And all states that we love. Our grapes come from Washington, California, and Oregon – and we absolutely love each vineyard that we work with. At ENSO, in addition to our wines, we keep a rotating tap of other Portland-made wines and local beers. There is plenty to taste and try in our Tasting Lounge. So enjoy.
