The people have spoken, the votes were tallied and the winners of the 2015 Oregon Wine A-List Awards have been announced. Last fall, the Oregon Wine Board and the Oregon Wine Press asked for your help in choosing restaurants and sommeliers that go the extra mile, promoting Oregon wines. All the winners make the wines from our state a priority in their dining establishments.
“The Oregon Wine A-List Awards guide consumers to restaurants, both in-state and outside of Oregon, that promote and feature Oregon wines in concert with their menus and cuisines,” said Ellen Brittan, Oregon Wine Board chairwoman. “We’re very proud of each A-List Award winner’s commitment to Oregon wines.”
And the winners are…
