Washington Winemakers Showcase Versatility of Riesling

Washington Winemakers Showcase Versatility of Riesling




No place in the United States produces more Riesling than the Columbia Valley, and nowhere else in the world does a winery make more Riesling.

Welcome to Washington, the state of Riesling.

Pacific Rim Winemakers produces several styles of Riesling, including Vin de Glaciere, a dessert style from the dramatic The Benches Vineyard, which overlooks the Columbia River in Washington's Horse Heaven Hills.

Thanks to the leadership of Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville, the Evergreen State leads the nation in Riesling production, more than California, Oregon, New York and Michigan. And Washington's oldest winery bottles more Riesling than any winery in the world – including Germany.

Follow the link for several examples of Washington Rieslings, which run the gamut of styles. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly.
