The gentle rising slope that forms Red Mountain appears to ascend from earth as a remote sentinel, guarding over its vineyards below. As the smallest appellation in Washington, Red Mountain harbors a unique confluence of geographic and environmental conditions, creating distinctive terroir, valuable viticultural sites and some of the State's most desirable wine grapes.
This isolated and starkly beautiful region is a remarkable discovery in the midst of the Eastern Washington landscape. Perched atop soils containing calcium and alkaline, positioned with a southwestern aspect to the sun and bordered by the cooling effects of the Yakima River, the limited acreage designated as Red Mountain land comprises what is recognized as a micro-climate and terroir unique in the entire world.
