In 2011, Linfield University (then Linfield College) established the Oregon Wine History Archive (OWHA), which is committed to preserving and sharing the story of Oregon wine. With our mission to preserve all aspects and collect from all regions of the Oregon wine industry, we have a growing group of collections from winery owners, winemakers, grape-growers, marketers, enthusiasts and sommeliers.

DigitalCommons@Linfield provides an overview of the collection, as well as related exhibits and highlights from each wine grower or organization. Some items in these collections were initially digitized as part of the Oregon Wine History Project, a collaborative research venture from the Linfield Center for the Northwest.

For more information, please go to the Linfield Archives website or the OWHA site.
