The lineup focuses mainly on white varietals from Columbia Gorge vineyards, alongside red varietals from Eastern Washington, made with a lighter, site-focused hand. The architect-designed tasting room combines skylights, glass doors, fireplaces, and relaxed seating in a lodge-like setting. Outside, the spacious courtyard offers multiple seating areas, an outdoor fire feature, and scenic surroundings, with leashed dogs and supervised children welcome. Reservation-based seated tastings, group visits, and arranged tours offer a more focused way to experience the winery.
