Yakima Valley Region

Blessed by nature with a rare combination of near-perfect wine-grape growing conditions, the Yakima Valley Region lies just north of the 46th parallel at the same latitude as the great French wine producing regions. The long, warm summer days, cool nights and mineral-rich volcanic soil are ideal for classic grape growing.

It is in this environment that the skills and talents of our winemakers have flourished in the crafting of award-winning premium varietal wines. The list typically includes Chardonnay, Riesling, Chenin blanc, Sauvignon blanc, Semillon, Gewurztraminer, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Lemberger and Muscats.

Everyone is invited to enjoy touring the premium wineries of the Yakima Valley and tasting the quality wines offered.

Plan your vacation to the Pacific Northwest with a packet of information in the mail and you may win a $200 gift certificate courtesy of our sponsors.
