Historical Note
The first International Pinot Noir Celebration (IPNC) was held at Linfield University (then Linfield College) in 1987. Since then, the celebration is held every year for a growing number of wine producers, journalists, and pinot noir enthusiasts. What started as something small is now one of the largest events in the Pinot Noir world; IPNC has grown to include more than 302 foreign wineries and has hosted more than 13,000 wine lovers since its inception. Each year since 1987, IPNC has evolved with a commitment to providing a weekend of tasting, dining, learning, and celebrating together. For more information about IPNC, please see their website.
Collection Description
The IPNC collection, some of which is available online via DigitalCommons@Linfield, contains documents (invitations, newspaper articles, reviews, correspondence between IPNC and wineries, advertisements, magazines, letters, meeting summaries, and much more), photographs (from the annual IPNC celebrations, but also of meetings and other events), negatives, posters, exhibition material, objects that relate to the IPNC, and CDs with digital content (photos, movies, and documents). This portion of the collection features archival documents from IPNC, which are provided specifically for the purpose of teaching and research only. For additional wine history content related to IPNC, see also the Oregon Wine History Archive.
