Each year a select group of 40 Oregon vintners release a rare and tiny cuvée for the annual ¡Salud! auction. This year, for the first time, wine lovers around the country can raise a digital paddle from home, call out to the auctioneer, and vie for a taste in the Summertime ¡Salud! E-Auction. This is your chance to purchase from any or all 40 vintners before the remaining four cases are sold at the Big Board Auction & Pinot Party in November.

Registration is free and all cuvée lots are available now for preview. Electronic bidding will begin on Tuesday, July 17 at 8 a.m. and continue until Thursday, July 19 at 8 p.m. All proceeds benefit ¡Salud! Services to provide healthcare outreach to Oregon vineyard workers and their families.
