PORTLAND, Ore. Oregon is known for its wine. But even those living in the state may not realize the incredible variety of wines it has to offer. A Portland business owner is trying to change that.
“There is so much more going on in the state of Oregon than just pinot noir,” said Carrie Wynkoop, owner of Cellar 503. The Portland-based wine club sends its members Oregon wine made by small producers from all over the state.
“Just the little guys, [wines] you wouldn t normally find in the grocery stores,” said Wynkoop. “I wanted to be able to get the word out about these small producers to folks all over the country.”
