"The Oregon wine story
is the story of people and a place that is unlike any other. It is a story of
people who will not acknowledge words like "no," "can't do,"
"shouldn't do." It's the story of families planting, harvesting and
crushing grapes together, creating a legacy. It's the entrepreneurs who came to
Oregon to make wine in the place where salmon and forests surround the land.
It's the place where you walk into the winery and see the person whose name is
on the bottle, bringing grapes in from the vineyard, washing the wine glasses,
or sweeping up the stems during crush. This is the story of 150 wineries,
second-most in the nation, that have set out their welcome mat for you."
