Dozens of Oregon wineries and vineyards have sued PacifiCorp over the deadly 2020 wildfires
FILE - A man holds a jug of water he used to douse hot spots at a home destroyed by the the Riverside Fire, Sept. 11, 2020, in Estacada, Ore. that ravaged the state, alleging that the utility's decision to not turn off power during the Labor Day windstorm contributed to blazes whose smoke and soot damaged their grapes and reduced their harvest and sales.
In their complaint, the wine producers say the fires “produced harmful smoke particles that landed on and infused themselves into the grapes." Despite paying “extraordinary costs” to try to cleanse the soot and smoke from their 2020 vintages, such efforts largely failed, according to the complaint.
