Rogue Valley Wine Route

Jacksonville

Arguably Oregon’s cutest town, Jacksonville has become a wine destination-art-and-music lover spot with tasting rooms, Victorian B&Bs, festivals, loads of pioneer sites, great farm to table eats and super shopping.

Applegate Valley AVA

The only designated sub-AVA in the Rogue Valley, the Applegate’s vineyards range from 1,000 to 1,500 feet elevation. Warmer and drier than the Illinois Valley to the west but less so than the Southern Rogue Valley to the east, loads of varieties thrive here, including Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Chardonnay and Zinfandel. Plus some interesting Rhone-style wines like Grenache, Mourvèdre, Viognier and Roussanne.

Upper Rogue

A fertile triangle between Crater Lake, Medford and Grants Pass, the Upper Rogue yields wines with concentrated character from well-drained Rogue River soil. The climate is warm and elevation relatively low. Vineyards here produce rich reds like Tempranillo, Zinfandel and Bordeaux, and celebrated whites like Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.

Southern Rogue Valley

With vineyards ranging from 1,300 to 2,100 elevation, the Southern Rogue Valley between Medford and Ashland basks in a beautifully arid, warm climate. It’s also incredibly diverse: depending on aspect and elevation, some areas produce Bordeaux-style wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec, while other, higher-elevation sites render Burgundy varietals like nuanced Pinot Noirs, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay.
