Today Oregon has more than 300 wineries, all of which need access to new knowledge on topics ranging from grape-growing and harvesting to marketing and distribution. The OSU Wine Institute will fill that need, harnessing our expertise in horticulture, food science and technology, and business to fuel the industry's progress. "This is an historic opportunity to create an institute that will be an indispensable research partner for vineyard owners," says Anita Azarenko, head of the OSU Horticulture Department. The OSU Wine Institute exemplifies the best of what the University's programs have to offer, generating the knowledge that directly impacts the livelihoods of people throughout the state.
