About
Oregon Pinot noir

Avalon on Northwest Wine Articles, Interviews, Features
Vineyards Articles about the famous vineyards of the Pacific Northwest, and information about the world of wine grape growing. 2004 is Avalon's "Year of the Vineyard" and we profile ten top vineyards in Oregon and Washington. Also read about trellising, grape varietals, soils, and lots more.

Interviews Meet the people of the Pacific Northwest Wine World. Since 1999, Avalon has published interviews with Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and British Columbia's most interesting wine people. Read the fascinating stories behind the wines you love, and develop a more in-depth understanding of how wine people think.

Northwest Wine University The Science of Tasting, conducting a wine tasting or wine competition, corks versus screwcaps, Soils and how they influence the flavors of wine, Trellising grapes- art and science, articles about each of the major grape varietals, how to read a wine label, and winemaking and viticultural methods.

Winery Profiles Learn about the wineries- read about their history, people, wines, vineyards, successes and challenges, and get a sense of the who, what, when, where of the winery.

Feature Articles Each month Avalon publishes feature articles on different aspects of the Pacific Northwest wine world. Historical tales of each state's wine industry, geological tales of how the geography and climate of the Northwest evolved, reports on different wine regions, and food and travel info are included.

Columns and Opinions Read the musings of wine writers Cole Danehower and Christina Kelly, and keep up with Wine Press NW's "Wine of the Week". Avalon owner Jean Yates talks wine from her "Kitchen Counter Chronicles", and occasional guest writers talk NW wine.

Avalon's Monthly Newsletter Our monthly newsletter consolidates all of our new articles and wine releases, , and twice a year, our two big sales. We publish the first info about new, hard to get releases and give our readers advance notice so they can grab the hard to get wines before they disappear.
