Wine from Rainier Ridge Winery

The Rainier Ridge Winery Estate
Rainier Ridge Winery honors two of Washington State's greatest assets, world class wine and the striking Mount Rainier ( 14,410 feet). Rainier Ridge wines embody the rich Washington terrain responsible for producing some of the world’s finest vinifera grapes. Sourced from Washington’s famed Columbia Valley and bursting with dark berry and tropical fruit, Rainier Ridge Chardonnay and Merlot deliver grandiose flavors at a modest price.

The Rainier Ridge Winery Vineyard
Washington State is the nation’s second largest producer of premium wines. Recently recognized by Wine Enthusiast magazine as “Wine Region of the Year”, the high-quality premium wines have earned the state international recognition, critical acclaim and legions of loyal consumers. It’s a winning combination that translates into success in the marketplace. Washington’s success with vinifera grapes is due in large measure to the state’s unique geography. The vineyards are planted on the east side of the Cascade Mountains which serve to protect the region from marine weather off the Pacific coast and limit rainfall to just 6-8 inches annually. Low rainfall and free-draining soils allow vineyard managers to control vine vigor in order to promote flavor development. Warm daytime temperatures ripen fruit to perfection, while cool autumn nights protect the grapes’ natural acidity.
