McMinnville Food & Wine Classic wine competition, left, considers a bottle of wine with Carl Giavanti, competition publicist, and Rolland Toevs, competition manager during the event Saturday, March 27, at Abbey Road Farms. About 200 Oregon wines were entered in the 2021 event.
Meg and Zach Hixson have purchased the downtown clothing and home goods store Yamhill Valley Dry Goods from Sylla McClellan, who also owns Third Street Books.
The Hixsons plan to change the store’s name to Left By West. They also will move it one block east, from its current location at 416 N.E. Third St. to 512 N.E. Third.
The latter site is the former location of Found Objects, which has temporarily consolidated into Accessory Appeal next door. Both businesses are owned by Hollyann Finch.
McClellan and her husband, Corey Guinnee, purchased the 512 building last year under the name Bronze Medal Ventures.
McClellan said Yamhill Valley Dry Goods will have a closing sale during the next several weeks. It will shut its doors in late April and reopen in May under the new name and in the new location.
Meg Hixson was one of the first members of the Yamhill Valley Dry Goods team, McClellan said. “Meg was integral in helping launch the business,” she said.
In the early days, Zach Hixson painted in a studio in the back of the store, as well.
“I’m excited they’ll be the ones to steer the shop into the future,” McClellan said, “and for the fresh energy Meg and Zach will bring to our downtown.”
Store manager Matthea Brown will be staying on with the new Left By West shop.
“I’m confident the business has a very bright future,” said McClellan, who opened Yamhill Valley Dry Goods in 2011.
She said the last 12 months have been ones of adjustment for her shop, as they have for every retailer because of the pandemic.
Her store added more online shopping and shopping appointments and made some changes to its inventory.
McClellan said she plans to take “a little breather” when the Hixson’s take over the shop. She will focus on the bookstore and other projects.

Sip! winners named
Twenty-three wines received “double gold” medals, 36 won gold and 93 won silver at the 2021 Sip! McMinnville Food and Wine Classic wine competition, held March 27.
The food and wine festival was canceled in 2020 and 2021, with plans to resume in March 2022. But the competition continued despite coronavirus-related closures.
“It went quite well,” said Jon Johnson, volunteer chair of Sip! “We had the most beautiful day at Abbey Road Farms” near Carlton, where the event was held.
A dozen well-respected wine judges sampled nearly 200 wines, all from Oregon, before declaring the winners. The judges included sommeliers, wine writers, wine buyers and other experts, Johnson said.
“It’s nice to get people who really know what the characteristics of various types of wine should be, and have the palates to judge them,” he said.
Best of Show and Best White Wine awards went to South Stage Cellars’ Romeo & Juliet. The wine also picked up a double gold.
Cardwell Hill Cellars’ “The Bard Chard” was named Best Chardonnay at the 2021 event. It was one of two Cardwell entries to win double gold, as well.
