The whites are made at the Chateau in Woodinville, WA, while the reds are made at our Canoe Ridge Estate winery in Eastern Washington.

Absolutely the worst wine tasting experience we’ve ever had in 20 years. Ushered into a sterile room with no information before hand. Presentation felt like a time share. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. Our friends bought 8 bottles of wine and they did not waive the tasting fee.
