The Future of IPNC

A Message from the Board of Directors

We know everyone is eagerly awaiting news about the future of IPNC and, as Board President Michelle Kaufmann said, “The future of IPNC is bright!”

Our future is bright because our community is filled with intelligent, passionate, creative people who still believe in the value and the mission of IPNC. Above all, we exist to elevate our community and our industry. A vision committee continues to work at reimagining our event to ensure that the next iteration of IPNC meets the landscape and the moment.

We look forward to coming together in the near future over a glass of Pinot noir!

Cheers to IPNC!

Celebrating Pinot Noir & The People Who Make It For 35 Years!

The IPNC offers Pinot Noir consumers and industry members the chance to enjoy an unparalleled selection of Pinot noir from around the world via a full schedule of seminars, walkaround tastings, winery tours, and unforgettable meals prepared by top Northwest chefs. With the exception of a vineyard and winery tour, the IPNC is held on the beautiful and historic Linfield University campus. McMinnville is an easy hour drive southwest of Portland in the heart of Oregon wine country.

The IPNC offers great foods, fantastic wines, and interesting lectures all wrapped up in a very casual, relaxed atmosphere that simply makes it a joy to attend.

ALDER YARROW - VINOGRAPHY

The IPNC consistently attracts the brightest stars in the wine world… perhaps best of all is the opportunity to interact with pinot producers from all of the world’s greatest regions.

ALLEN MEADOWS - BURGHOUND.COM

I’d recommend IPNC as an intro for casual Pinot lovers or a full-on master class for winemakers. Actually, I’d say it’s required!

IPNC is one of those rare wine gatherings that works on every level
