Winery and Orchard Tours
Surrounded by forested mountains and rivers, the Rogue Valley has many micro-climates necessary for a world class viticultural district. The Applegate Valley, which stretches from Jacksonville to Grants Pass, is Oregon's newest wine appellation and has an ever-growing string of boutique wineries that stretch along the path of the Applegate River. These wineries are producing a variety of award-winning wines which are receiving ever growing acclaim from the wine world. Most of these wineries are still family operated and are among the best kept secrets in the wine industry- just waiting for you to discover them on your next trip to Jacksonville.
If this isn't enough to satisfy your wine palate, there are a host of other wineries in the Rogue Valley Viticultural District stretching from Ashland in the south to Gold Hill in the North and the Illinois Valley to the west - all readily accessible from your home base in Jacksonville.
The Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce has Winery and Orchard Tour maps available. Don't forget to add time for a visit to our local award-winning cheese and chocolate artisans. Rogue Valley Creamery and Lillie Belle Farms Chocolate both offer scrumptious samplings of their creations.
