WARM UP WITH WILLAMETTE VALLEY WINES.
A year’s harvest is finally in the door, and the vines have released their brilliant leaves as they turn their energy inward. Young wines rest peacefully in barrel; their long slumber of transformation begins, and the promise of the vintage is now safely in the hands of our winemakers.
This is wine country’s coziest time of year. Cool, misty weather brings us indoors to the warmth of intimate tasting rooms, the hushed thrill of that first taste of the new vintage from barrel, opportunities to savor delicious food and wine pairings and the chance to share this moment with the talented makers who can finally catch their breath and embrace the calm of this special season.

That’s a wrap on #OPC2022. Words can’t begin to describe how good it felt to welcome our campers, pop some great bottles, sound-check our mics and bedazzle some buses after three long years. Wineries, speakers, volunteers, vendors and partners, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🌹 Camp manager the_og_meganmarkel and chair carriekalscheuer, all the bubbles for you. 🥂🍾 And to our Class of 2022: We love you. We hope you take what you learned and share it—and always remember that you are part of the Oregon Pinot Noir Story. #justgotsomedustinmyeye #oregonpinotnoir ...

Scenes from two days of #OPC2022 dress rehearsals at REX HILL. Our amazing lineup of speakers practiced their talking points and presentation skills in front of their peers—a daunting task, but a critical one as we prepare the best possible educational content for our campers. Plus, bonus puppy courtesy of irisvineyards winemaker Aaron. #justoneweektogo #wineeducation ...
On Day Three, campers experience another side of Oregon wine by choosing their own adventure: an AVA tour, a chance to try their hand at blending and marketing their own wine, a dive into alternative Oregon wines (and a hidden lake), a library wine retrospective, a plane tour of the Willamette Valley by a winemaker pilot, an opportunity to hear stories from our community’s pioneers, a rafting trip and white wine seminar, a sparkling wine workshop, or a closer look at Chardonnay. Campers, thank you for coming to Oregon wine country. We hope you’ll take these memories with you wherever you go. #opc2022 #OPCdaythree ...
Hate has no home here. We express our unconditional love and support for members of our wine community who are BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and in any way underrepresented in wine, and we condemn the recent wave of bigotry affecting those who call Newberg their workplace and home. We stand with tastenewberg and all local organizations expressing solidarity with our vulnerable community members. #wvwines ...
