Oregon
Wineries
Oregon is located in
the temperate 45th parallel, where many of the world's fines
wine-producing regions are found. Wine growing in the state,
which began in the late nineteenth century when the first
vineyard in southern Oregon was planted by pioneer Jesse Applegate,
has now developed into a well established tradition. In this
29th anniversary year of Art and the Vineyard, we are proud
to feature many of the best vineyards in the Southern Willamette
Valley and beyond.
Wine and wine-tasting was central to the Art and the Vineyard
festival from the very beginning. Wine expert Bob Sogge led
his fellow Rotarians in envisioning the first festival, which
was held in 1984 at Forgeron Vineyards (now Lavelle Vineyards)
in Elmira. Bob remembers the first event as "very festive
and fun." A large tent was installed on the south side
of the winery grounds. Here the artwork was displayed and
later auctioned off, along with the wine, by veteran auctioneer
Sid Voorhees. Rotarian Ted Mohler recollected the "sheer
terror" of not knowing whether anyone would show up at
the festival. The planners had also forgotten to bring water
on site, so on that very hot day in July twenty-nine years
ago, "all there was to drink for the crowd that did come
in great numbers was wine."
