​Our focus continues to be on “Getting & Staying Together” during this challenging time and creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone. We are also honing our wine production strategies to “Create the BEST VALUE Premium Wines Possible”.
To that end, we added new Vineyards such as Red Mountain AVA’s Ciel du Cheval Vineyard, Candy Mountain AVA’s Candy Mountain Vineyard, and Rattlesnake Hills AVA’s RPK Vineyards as well as consolidated several varietals to Wahluke Slope AVA’s Stonetree Vineyard. We continue to support Royal Slope AVA’s Stillwater Creek Vineyard and Yakima Valley AVA’s Chandlers Reach Vineyard as well. Some NEW wine varietals in the pipeline include Merlot, Petite Sirah, Carménère, and Petit Verdot.
To ensure everyone in your party has something they enjoy while visiting the Tasting Room or listening to Live Music on our lake view Patio we have added additional Non-ALC Options (waters, Non-ALC Beers & Mocktails, etc.) We also have 3 selections of WA Beers, White & Rose’ Bubbles, as well as all of our White, Rose’ & Red Wines and a great selection of nibbles.
If you have not visited the Tasting Room in Manson for a while, we have added new tables and comfy chairs. We continue to have LIVE Music on the Patio Saturday’s 3:00-5:00pm. We added NEW Vibe Cellars Merchandise for your selection.
