Sip! It!

Celebrating its 19th year, Sip! McMinnville Wine & Food Classic returns to the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum, March 9–11.

More than 160 vendors will share the dynamic space, including Oregon winemakers and vintners sampling and selling their wines. Artisans will also dot the event floor with unique works of art — including edible creations — which will also be available for purchase. For the foodie, some of the area’s best chefs in the Northwest will demonstrate their skills.

Tickets are $17 and include admission to museum; they do not include tasting fees, which vary by vendor.
