As Northwest winegrowers and winemakers face an ever-increasing set of challenges – from climate change to vineyard viruses – innovations and current research insights are more crucial now than ever before. Attendees at the 2017 Oregon Wine Symposium will learn how to respond to unanticipated obstacles, improve processes and confront issues posed by long-term changes.
Viticulture sessions will focus on ways growers can cultivate a healthy vineyard, such as adapting plant material to site-specific ecosystems, employing irrigation management techniques and incorporating current research on red blotch virus. Enology sessions will offer ideas for how wineries can use resources more sustainably, adapt winemaking approaches to varying vintage conditions and combat spoilage challenges.
The world-renowned speakers at the 2017 Symposium make this event the one educational opportunity of the year not to miss!
