Flying Dutchman Winery

The Flying Dutchman is a small family-owned winery that enjoys one of the most spectacular locations on the Oregon Coast. We have been making wine in front of the ocean since 1997 and many feel that it’s the salt air that makes our wines so unique.

Winemaker and owner Richard Cutler started the winery in the restaurant of the Inn at Otter Crest. It was billed as Oregon’s first ‘micro-winery’ and was popular from the start. With a little beginners luck, Cutler’s first vintage of Pinot Noir won the winery’s first medal at the prestigious 1999 Oregon State Fair. Since then Flying Dutchman wines have earned many medals and are highly regarded in the northwest.
