The Columbia River Gorge is unlike any other wine region in North America. Stretching across the Oregon and Washington border, this remarkable AVA is defined by dramatic contrasts—lush forests give way to high desert, volcanic cliffs rise above the Columbia River, and cool marine air gradually transitions to an arid continental climate. These shifting landscapes create one of the world's most diverse growing regions, where dozens of grape varieties thrive and natural winemakers are redefining what Pacific Northwest wine can be.
