The Newport <strong>Seafood</strong> and<br />

<strong>Wine</strong> Festival<br />

Come join Newport’s biggest party<br />

by Nancy Steinberg<br />

The population of Newport is just over 10,000,<br />

but on the last full weekend in February every<br />

year it can swell to double that number. What<br />

brings people from far and wide to the coast in the<br />

throes of Oregon’s winter weather? The promise of<br />

fabulous food, plentiful drink, and the biggest party<br />

on the Oregon Coast.<br />

The annual Newport <strong>Seafood</strong> & <strong>Wine</strong> Festival is a four-day<br />

signature event with a festival atmosphere where more than 150<br />

vendors, including purveyors of seafood, craftspeople, and over<br />

80 Northwest wineries offer an abundance of culinary delights<br />

and beverages in a gigantic tent in South Beach, Newport adjacent<br />

to the Rogue brewery.<br />

For most visitors, the heart of the weekend is the opportunity<br />

to sample and purchase a wide range of top-notch Northwest<br />

wines. Associated with the event is the longest continuous wine<br />

competition in the Northwest, judged by a panel of five nationally<br />

known wine experts. As the Northwest has grown as a wine<br />

producing region, so has the competition. Each <strong>Seafood</strong> & <strong>Wine</strong><br />

Festival wine vendor may enter up to three wines in the prestigious<br />

commercial competition. The judging for the competition<br />

happens before the festival so the winners can be announced<br />

and sold at the event. This year, 142 entries were received, and<br />

98 medals were awarded (36 gold, 28 silver, and 34 bronze). One<br />

outstanding wine is given the prestigious Joseph H. Swafford<br />

Best in Show award. In <strong>2019</strong>, that honor went to Merrill Cellars<br />

for their 2016 Rouge Valley, Reserva Garnacha.<br />

Joseph Swafford, a recently-retired local wine shop and restaurant<br />

owner, serves as the long-time judging coordinator. He<br />

has observed a dramatic increase in quality of wines in the competition,<br />

and in the Northwest over the decades. “I’ve watched<br />

Oregon winemakers struggle with the vagaries of the weather,<br />

learn what varieties of grapes do best in specific soil locations,<br />

and witnessed the successes that have brought world-wide attention<br />

to the resulting exquisite wines. We have much to be proud<br />

of from our Oregon and Northwest wines!” he reflected.<br />

Thomas “Mac” McLaren, a local sommelier who has judged<br />

the competition from its inception, agrees. He noted, “We’ve


seen a particular improvement in the white wines entered in the competition, and we’re seeing<br />

some unusual white varietals as well.”<br />

At the festival itself, attendees can purchase tastes, glasses, bottles, and cases of most<br />

wines, including the medal-winners. Paired with the excellent festival wines will be unparalleled<br />

seafood offerings. Newport is proud to be able to showcase the bounty of the Pacific<br />

that comes through its port every year. You’ll find crab, bay shrimp, oysters, salmon, albacore,<br />

and other local delicacies in abundance, as well as other types of food.<br />

The peak time for the entire event is Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm, so to help with traffic<br />

flow, no tickets will be sold at the gate that day – all Saturday tickets must be purchased<br />

online, and numbers will be limited. Increased personnel and two entrances to the festival<br />

tent will also assist in moving people through at peak times. Festival organizers warn that<br />

you’ll still have to expect waits on Saturday, though. To avoid the lines, try coming at a different<br />

time (see Insider Tips on page 9).<br />

Parking at the event costs $5 and is somewhat limited. A better option is to take the free<br />

shuttle, which will be running frequently all over town throughout the event.<br />

Returning this year is a our special VIP entrance for guests holding special tickets including<br />

“Ruby Club Membership.”<br />

The Ruby Club provides guests entry through the new VIP entrance near the main<br />

entrance on all four nights and includes a host of other benefits.<br />

Even outside of the festival’s 50,000 foot tent there is plenty of fun to be found that weekend<br />

in Newport. The festival atmosphere spreads throughout the community, as many local<br />

businesses and organizations plan special events on the same weekend to take advantage of<br />

the crowds. Restaurants often have special menus and live music, shops will have wine sales<br />

featuring medal winners, and the local running club sponsors a 5K road race.<br />

Such a massive event requires the work of the entire Chamber of Commerce staff, an<br />

all-volunteer committee of two dozen, and hundreds of other volunteers who sign up to work<br />

the event. The generous sponsors make the event possible, and for the seventh year in a row,<br />

the festival’s presenting sponsor is Chinook Winds Casino Resort.<br />

Many of the volunteers perform their duties in exchange for a three-day pass to the event.<br />

A four-hour shift is all that is required, and out-of-towners are welcome. Check the event web<br />

site for details and to sign up.<br />

The primary purpose of the festival is to infuse a boost into the local economy at a time<br />

when it is ready for a boost. While revenues from festival admissions are reinvested in the<br />

community by the Chamber of Commerce, local organizations benefit as well. More than 20<br />

local non-profit organizations participate as their annual fundraiser by providing services<br />

such as monitoring parking and cleaning up, and some have a booth that features one of the<br />

festival’s wineries and they ‘pour for proceeds.’<br />

Bobbi Price, Festival Manager said, “It has been an honor to have such an integral role in<br />

the planning of the Newport <strong>Seafood</strong> & <strong>Wine</strong> Festival. Over the last 10 years I have watched<br />

it grow and develop in wonderful ways. One thing that I am continually impressed by and<br />

very thankful for is the incredible amount of community support that surrounds this event. It<br />

wouldn’t be possible to execute without the local committee that works year-round and 300<br />

volunteers that come together through the weekend to create a successful event.”There are<br />

many reasons why Newport’s <strong>Seafood</strong> and <strong>Wine</strong> Festival is “The Original and Still the Best”.<br />

Of course, the fun makes this event number one on the Oregon coast!

5 Insider Tips<br />

for Enjoying the Newport<br />

<strong>Seafood</strong> & <strong>Wine</strong> Festival<br />

Come Thursday night<br />

In recent years the festival has opened quietly on Thursday<br />

evening, informally referred to as “Locals’ Night.” This is the<br />

least crowded and most laid-back time to attend, and all<br />

vendors will be set up and ready to go.<br />

Come After 2 pm on<br />

Saturday<br />

Peak hours for the entire festival are 2pm-12pm on Saturday.<br />

If you are looking for a leisurely stroll through the event, you<br />

will want to avoid Saturday and enjoy a day in Newport at other<br />

shops and area attractions. If you enjoy the crowd and hoopla,<br />

come after 2 pm on Saturday and go to dinner afterwards!<br />

FROM THE WINERY<br />

By O.J. Merrill of Merrill Cellars<br />

As Robert Mondavi said in his Autobiography Harvest of Joy, “<strong>Wine</strong><br />

to me is a passion. It’s family and friends. It’s warmth of heart and<br />

generosity of spirit. <strong>Wine</strong> is art. <strong>Wine</strong> is Culture. It’s the essence of<br />

civilization and the art of living.”<br />

My first wine related job was in 1972. I had great friends and mentors<br />

with volumes of knowledge about wine, and I was an inquiring mind<br />

and palette wanting to learn. There my adventure began. Thus my<br />

adventure continues. Restaurant jobs, wine jobs, and dreams led me<br />

to making wine to my taste, based on mostly European wines and<br />

their food compatibility. The wines speak for me and for the terrior.<br />

Sunday is a great day<br />

Sunday is a more relaxed environment inside the big tents.<br />

You will have more elbow room and time to really peruse the<br />

booths and enjoy sampling and buying your favorite wine.<br />

Use the Shuttle<br />

Parking near the event, especially at peak times, can be a<br />

hassle, and it could cramp your wine-tasting style (please don’t<br />

drink and drive!). Free shuttles will run throughout town for the<br />

duration of the festival; the shuttle schedule and route map are<br />

on page 19 of this guide.<br />

Volunteer<br />

If you volunteer just four hours of your time during the festival<br />

for the Chamber of Commerce, you will receive a free three-day<br />

pass to the event. Free! Only four hours! Such a deal! Sign up<br />

to volunteer on the festival’s web site.<br />

(Newport, Oregon) - The <strong>2019</strong> Newport <strong>Seafood</strong> and <strong>Wine</strong> Festival Amateur<br />

matched the smooth aroma and attractive color. Hatt also received a gold medal<br />

Bounty of the Sea:<br />

A guide to Newport’s mouth-watering seafood<br />

by Nancy Steinberg<br />

While many visitors seem to focus on the “<strong>Wine</strong>” part of the <strong>Seafood</strong> & <strong>Wine</strong><br />

Festival, the outstanding selection of local seafood is worth the trip to the<br />

festival as well. Here’s a checklist of some of the types of local seafood you’ll<br />

find offered by the festival’s vendors. Get your seafood fix and try them all!<br />

Dungeness Crab<br />

Dungeness crab is the official Oregon state crustacean, and Newport has been<br />

officially designated the Dungeness Crab Capital of the World. Luckily, you’re<br />

here smack-dab in the middle of Dungeness season. At the festival look for crab<br />

cocktail, crab dips, crab melts and other yummy ways you can eat this Newport<br />

icon.<br />

Salmon<br />

Salmon is to the Pacific Northwest what lobster is to Maine: an iconic species<br />

weighty with culture and history. The two most popular species here are<br />

Chinook, otherwise known as king salmon, and Coho, also called silver salmon.<br />

How about smoked salmon or salmon jerky while you’re at the festival?<br />

Pink Shrimp<br />

Small in size, local pink shrimp are big on taste, as well as easy on the wallet.<br />

Shrimp cocktail will be available at the festival, and look for them on salads and<br />

in crepes as well.<br />

Clams<br />

Very low low tides, called minus tides, bring out clammers at many local<br />

beaches. Razor clams are big and delicious (and harder to catch than any animal<br />

without a backbone should be), and we have cockles, gapers, and butter clams,<br />

clam fritters and Mo’s will be serving up its world-famous clam chowder at the<br />

festival.<br />

Oysters<br />

The Oregon coast was renowned for its oysters for generations, but the native<br />

oyster has been largely extirpated from local waters. Oregon Oyster Farms,<br />

upriver from the Bayfront, now farms the briny treats. Find oyster shooters at<br />

the festival, and while you’re here, you can also purchase oysters directly from<br />

the farm’s retail outlet at about milepost seven on the Bay Road.

To-do List<br />

What to see while you’re not seafood-and-wining<br />

by Nancy Steinberg<br />

Y<br />

ou’re here to eat seafood and drink wine, and by all<br />

means, please spend as much time as you can doing<br />

just that. But Newport is full of fun things to do in case<br />

you need to take a break from the giant tent.<br />

Lighthouses<br />

Newport has two picturesque lighthouses that were historically used to guide<br />

and warn ships at sea. These historic treasures are now landmarks and tourist<br />

destinations as well as icons of our beautiful city. The Yaquina Bay Lighthouse in<br />

Yaquina Bay State Park is believed to be the oldest structure in Newport, and is<br />

listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Located just north of Newport<br />

in the Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse<br />

is the tallest lighthouse in Oregon.<br />

Hatfield Marine Science Center<br />

Ever watch an octopus devour a live crab? Want to try your hand at generating<br />

electricity with a wave? Have questions about invasive species, underwater<br />

earthquakes, deep-sea hydrothermal vents, or local fish species? You can do all<br />

this and more at the Visitor Center of Oregon State University’s Mark O. Hatfield<br />

Marine Science Center in South Beach. The Visitor Center houses exhibits related<br />

to HMSC faculty research, as well as touch tanks and a resident Pacific octopus.<br />

www.hmsc.oregonstate.edu<br />

Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center<br />

Housed in a gorgeous building presiding over the east end of the Bayfront, the<br />

Pacific Maritime & Heritage Center is stunningly beautiful inside, a fitting home<br />

in which to explore Lincoln County’s maritime history and take in the bustling<br />

activity of the fishing fleet just across the street.<br />

Oregon Coast Aquarium<br />

No visit to Newport is complete without a stop at the Oregon Coast<br />

Aquarium. This world-class attraction features indoor and outdoor exhibits<br />

that have repeatedly earned the Aquarium a ranking as one of the top<br />

ten aquariums in the nation. Visitors can wander through a range of permanent<br />

exhibits focused on local critters. One favorite is Passages of the Deep,<br />

named “The coolest 50 yards on the Oregon Coast!” by Spirit Magazine, a<br />

1.32 million-gallon exhibit displaying a diverse array of marine animals<br />

including sharks up to 10 feet long.<br />

www.aquarium.org<br />

Nye Beach and the Bayfront<br />

Make sure to visit two lovely Newport neighborhoods while you’re here: Nye<br />

Beach, on the ocean, and the Bayfront, on the north shore of Yaquina Bay. Both<br />

areas have something for everyone, including unique shops, outstanding restaurants,<br />

and other attractions. On the Bayfront, make sure to stop by and say hello<br />

to the sea lions that loll (and bark!) on the pier near Port Dock One restaurant.
