Washington Wine: Unparalleled
Get to know why Washington is the most exciting wine region in the world
Washington State is the second-largest wine region in the United States, cultivating over 80 grape varieties, yet 90% of the wineries are small, family-owned wineries who make fewer than 5,000 cases a year.
Top varieties are Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Riesling and Syrah.

WASHINGTON: 20 unique growing regions.
Washington's vineyards and wineries are often spread across hundreds of miles and as such, grape growers and vintners must work in tandem; it's a region of shared endeavours and a huge community spirit. The wines produced here exhibit that spirit of integration, combined with the vibrant fruit character expected of American wine with the defined structure typical of the Old World.
With 17 hours of sunlight in the growing season, coupled with cool nights that help maintain the natural acidity of the grapes - you've got a grape growing heaven. There is now 60,000 + acres of vineyards.
Each AVA (American Viticultural Area) possesses a unique combination of climate, topography and soils that define the aromas and flavours of its grapes and the wines crafted from them.
