Columbia Cascades Region

The Columbia Cascade Region includes Grant County north of Interstate 90, Douglas, Chelan, and Okanogan counties. There is a wide range of climates and soils throughout the area. Many sites are frost free from April 1 through October 31, ample time to ripen even the most demanding grape varieties.

The varieties being grown and bottled include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, as well as lesser well-known varieties such as Roussanne. The wines range from deep reds to sweet late harvest and ice wines. Over 800 acres are currently planted in vineyards.
