Wenatchee Wine Country

The blue waters of the Columbia River flow through Central Washington in an arc that on it's western edge pushes against the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, which create a unique climate along the western edge of the rain shadow created by the Cascades.  Here, in engineering feats of steel and concrete, humans have created crossings that bring together the two sides of the river.

Dotting the hills and vales between these Columbia River crossings are the vineyards and wineries of the Columbia River Wine Region.  The wine trail that connects these wineries traverses some of the most spectacular country in Washington.  Vast Ice Age floods carved huge coulees, sheer basalt cliffs, and deposited soil on benches and eddies.

This then is the character of our wines.  Our grape growers nuture intense fruit from carefully tended vineyards.  These grapes, as a reflection of  the environment (terroir) are the key to our wonderful wines.  This fruit, in the hands of the individuals passionate about coaxing the best from the vine to the cellar, sets the stage for the creation of Wenatchee Wine Country wines.
