Wine Country
Named the “next Napa” by Vogue.com, the Rogue Valley AVA is the southernmost winegrowing region in Oregon. It’s made up of three distinct river valleys (Bear Creek, Applegate and Illinois), that extend from the foothills of the Siskiyou Mountains along the California border north to the Rogue River.
