Willamette Valley
Willamette Valley is Oregon's largest AVA. Most of the vineyards are located on the west side of the valley 60 to 330 m above sea level. Famous for its Burgundian-style Pinot noir wines, as well as for its Chardonnay and Pinot Gris white wines.
Wine in North America is not just about California, although 90 percent of all American wine comes from there. Oregon and Washington State have made the Pacific Northwest the country's second most significant wine region. Did you know that in addition to California, the Pacific Northwest and New York, all states - even Alaska - have some form of viticulture or wine production?
