OREGON, April 21, 2026 — Method Oregon, the nonprofit organization dedicated to elevating Oregon traditional method sparkling wine, today announced the lineup for the final day of its expanded Grand Tasting Weekend.
On Sunday, July 26, the 50+ founding wineries will host immersive, one-of-a-kind experiences as part of a “choose your own adventure” day, inviting guests to explore Oregon sparkling wine through a range of tasting flights, meals, and behind-the-scenes experiences. Events are scheduled throughout the day, beginning at 11 a.m. and continuing into the evening, allowing visitors to experience multiple experiences.
“This is a chance to experience Method Oregon sparkling wine the way it’s meant to be discovered: through the people, the places, and the process,” said Jeanne Feldkamp, Method Oregon board member and owner of Corollary Wines. “Each stop offers something completely different, and together these events show how dynamic and collaborative this community has become.”
Events will take place throughout the day and include collaborative tastings, in-depth educational experiences, brunches and lunches, vineyard visits, and sparkling flights. Reservations are required for all events, with ticketing available through the Method Oregon website and the Method Oregon Trail Map.
