Workshop Overview
Oregon sits at the cool edge of ripeness, where latitude, elevation, and ancient volcanic and marine soils shape wines of freshness and clarity.
In this workshop, we’ll explore the Willamette Valley and its sub-AVAs, examining how climate and site influence Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Through guided tasting, you’ll discover why Oregon has become one of the most compelling wine regions in the United States — and how subtle differences in soil and exposure create precision and balance in the glass.
This workshop is about understanding elegance, restraint, and the power of place.
