About this event
Embark on a journey to the birthplace of American Tempranillo with Abacela Winery! Nestled in Southern Oregon’s Umpqua Valley, Abacela was founded by Earl and Hilda Jones, who famously pioneered planting Spain’s iconic Tempranillo grape in the Pacific Northwest after carefully researching climate matches across the globe. Today, this benchmark estate is celebrated nationwide for crafting world-class, estate-grown Iberian varietals—from crisp Albariño to bold, age-worthy Tempranillo and Syrah. Join us to taste these award-winning, estate-grown wines, discover the fascinating story behind their pioneering estate, and experience the benchmark of Southern Oregon winemaking!
