Red Mountain Region

Red Mountain area lies within the Yakima Valley Region, yet is authorized as its own Region due to it's distinct microclimate. It is a small area (3,600 acres) in the southeastern portion of Yakima Valley Region. Six hundred acres are planted to vineyards that have developed over the past 20 years to earn their owners top dollar for the premium grapes grown there. Labels designating these vineyards create high consumer demand and satisfaction.

The dominant grape varieties currently planted to the Red Mountain Region are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah.
