TOP OF CHAPTER
Newberg & Dundee
The gateways to wine country, these small cities were originally founded as Quaker set-
tlements. Now little of those original quiet ways remain, and strip malls and modern ser-
vices are much of what you'll see. There are excellent restaurants here, however, along
with upscale places to sleep. Dundee is 2 miles west of Newberg, on Hwy 99W. For
