Bloom is in the Air

Cowhorn Vineyard & Garden

BY VINCE VIDRINE Bloom in the vineyard is one of the most important phenological milestones for every winegrower. Once the tiny white flowers explode from their little buds, you can pretty much set your timer for when you’re going to pick the grapes those flowers evolve into.

Bud Break, Held in Balance

Cowhorn Vineyard & Garden

BY VINCE VIDRINE We have finally reached bud break! Sort of… The earlier blocks of Viognier and Syrah broke bud in earnest early last week, followed by the warmer blocks of Grenache later in the week. However, with the cooler temperatures and rain that rolled in, the progression of the season has virtually come to a standstill.

Budbreak & Blending Trials

Cowhorn Vineyard & Garden

FROM MINI BYERS AND VINCE VIDRINE Even with the warmth over the past week, budbreak doesn’t feel quite imminent. The buds are a bit larger, a little softer, but still holding. Not quite ready to push. That said, with this stretch of beautiful weather continuing, it feels close. The season will be here before we know it.

2026 Summer Lineup

Airlie Winery

Northwest favorite Ty Curtis will kickoff the season on June 7th and treat us with a second helping as he closes the season on August 30th. The rest of June and July will bring exceptionally talented bands from closer to home who will fill the air with jazz, funk, rock, indie, string, celtic and folk, […]

Late Winter at the Vineyard and in the Cellar

The Quiet Turn of the Season

Cowhorn Vineyard & Garden

FROM MINI BYERS AND VINCE VIDRINE There is a subtle shift in the vineyard this time of year—a slowing, a softening of pace that feels almost like a held breath. The air carries the crispness of approaching winter. The leaves, once a vibrant chorus of green and gold, have drifted entirely to the ground, leaving the vines bare and honest. In these quiet moments, the vineyard seems to speak in whispers, offering us time to prepare, to observe, to tune ourselves to its rhythms.

Meet Erin

Pallet Noir

The Urban Cork

Pallet Wine Co. has not just made award winning wines, but has been part of an award winning film as well. Might I suggest you head on down to the The Urban Cork and City Center Wine District to explore your own kind of ‘noir.’ Walter Haussner’s favorite Pallet wine is the 2019 Donovan Chenin Blanc.

How To Make Your Own Private Label Wine

The Urban Cork

Making your own wine isn't easy, but it doesn't need to be a distant dream either. With a bit of knowledge and the right winery partner, you can bring your wine brand dreams to life! With Pallet Wine Company, we can help make your custom label wine ideas a reality!

Oregon Wine Press: “Dames of the Rogue”

The Urban Cork

When Linda Donovan opened the Rogue Valley’s first custom crush facility Pallet Wine Company in 2009, she says, “The timing was right, our wine industry was growing and I wanted to offer smaller growers a place to call home. It has been a lot of work– but my team and I love the challenges.”

The Gates of City Center Wine District

The Urban Cork

Have you ever imagined walking through a high iron gate, along a winding path, through a lush garden, into a marble palace with fountains of wine?

A Wine Club for all Wine Lovers

The Urban Cork

The sign behind the bar in The Urban Cork’s tasting room says, “Wine is just juice with more life experience.” This also seems an apt expression for The Urban Cork Wine Club, because first it’s the grape’s juice in the bottle, at the wine club party it’s opened, you taste, and voilà, life experience.

Wine Tasting 102 - Seize the Fees

Bradley Vineyards Tasting Room

If you are tasting wine around Oregon these days, it seems the expectation is to pay for a tasting. Here in Elkton, we are still somewhat 'old school' in that we assume you are going to find something you like and buy at least one bottle, so most of us don't really post a tasting fee.

Wine Club Life Hacks

Bradley Vineyards Tasting Room

Most wine clubs are designed to reward their fans with substantial discounts, and ours is no exception. Even so, I understand and appreciate anyone looking to shave a few bucks off their regular bills, and I'm here to help you hack your way to spending less to drink excellent wines.

Coming this May!

Bradley Vineyards Tasting Room

Unlike a traditional white wine that is pressed so the juice has no contact with the skins, this Gewürztraminer is crushed and fermented on its skins. The skins carry enough pigment to darken the wine. Not only am I pleased with its color and potential bottle presentation, I am really excited about...
