Eve’s Wine and Spirits 101
by Eve Bushman
I don’t know how many years I’ve turned to LocalWineEvents.com to find events to go to, take a wine quiz, look at “culinary vacations” and market my own non-profit wine, food, and spirit events. I recommended that my own newsletter readers sign up for The Juice newsletter as a resource. Nowadays I repost their Instagram posts frequently, ones with wine events as well as funny jokes – as I know my followers enjoy.

Many would agree Oregon wouldn’t be the same without wine—the agricultural value, beautiful vines sweeping the landscape and of course the community that Oregon wine creates for the 30,000+ people the wine industry employs and the people who travel here to taste it. It’s no surprise that many Oregon wineries have joined the effort to celebrate the grassroots campaign “Come Over October,” including Willamette Valley Vineyards, one of the state’s leading producers of Pinot Noir.

Numerous studies have revealed direct correlations between a person’s social connection and health. In fact, the US Attorney General cites research suggesting “the mortality impact of being socially disconnected is similar to that caused by smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day, and even greater than that associated with obesity and physical inactivity.” The bottom line is loneliness likely leads to premature death.
Yet, the solution is simple. Strengthen your relationships and bonds with others. A new wine campaign, Come Over October, encourages the perfect opportunity. Created by The Wine Bible’s Karen MacNeil, along with Gino Colangelo, president of Colangelo & Partners, Come Over October, or COO, encourages people to gather over a glass of wine.
Joining Come Over October is simple. Merely invite a friend over for a glass of wine. Or meet at your favorite winery, restaurant or bar. The wine industry is supporting Come Over October by posting celebration suggestions and special events on social media. Follow the #comeoveroctober hashtag to learn more. Visit www.localwineevents.com/come-over-october to find events near you.
