The style and quality of wine produced from grapes are greatly affected by vine training and trellising, which vary across different regions worldwide, including within the Columbia Valley AVA.

Unique soil conditions, slope requirements, and environmental factor’s associated to the giant glacial lake, dictate the use of specific trellises and vine training in areas like the Lake Chelan AVA and Rocky Reach AVA.

Shorter cordon training, replacement cane or spur pruned, 🌱with vertical shoot position (VSP)

• dependent on the Columbia Rivers air currents to protect from spring frost and winter damage
• shorter vine cordon length and trellis keeps the canopy and fruit closer to the warm rocky & reflective soil, extending ripening
• wind and breezes from the Columbia River increases evaporation of water from the canopy and fruit intensifies the juice for full bodied, juicy and intensly floral dark red wine, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and luscious Grenacha.

Unique soil conditions, slope requirements, and environmental factor’s associated to the giant glacial lake, dictate the use of specific trellises and vine training in areas like the Lake Chelan AVA and Rocky Reach AVA. In Lake Chelan's high elevation and short growing season, specialized training methods enable the production of ripe dark red grapes and complex varieties with;

Higher cordon training, replacement cane or spur pruned, 🌱with vertical shoot position (VSP)

• protects buds from spring frost and winter damage
• shields fruit from hot reflective soils, slowing down sugar production in relation to phenolic levels during ripening
• and increases sunlight exposure for enhanced color and tannin development for full bodied dark red wine, like Malbec, Syrah and even Tannat.

These things along with the unique glacial soils, adequate slope and lake effect, help create the unique wine characteristics of the area.

Let me take you through our smaller, nested AVAs along the upper Columbia Valley AVA in Washington State. I’ll take you through our area estate vineyards in the Lake Chelan AVA and Rocky Reach AVA to discuss how vineyards impact the style and quality of grapes grown for wine producers in our region.

🍀First off; it’s Spring! 🌸
That means vine training.
Trellising & pruning for the upcoming Bud break.
Winemakers and growers are shaping up the 2026 harvest as we speak! 🍀

CSR Red Wine & Chocolate Tasting🍫💝🍷
February 2026 we are an open Thursday-Saturday 12noon-5pm.

❤️February 12-14th
💜February 19-21st
💙February 26-28th

👉We will be closed February 5-7th to process our wine club orders prior to the event and to get them shipped out to members February 12th via UPS Ground 📦.

We’re pouring small tastings of the final offerings of our 2021 vintages of Tri*Umph, CARIS, and 100%Merlot before placing the remainder in our library collection. 📚Also included in your tasting reservations will be a complimentary charcuterie plate, and conclude with a lip-smacking sip of our No.22 Devil’s Smoke Stack port-style.

With health at the center of wine marketing today, we were inspired to feature the exceptional Scharffen Berger®Chocolates partnered by our friends at Harry & Davids. Scharffen Berger was established as an independent Berkeley, California. The company manufactures its own chocolate—as opposed to the more common practice of acquiring chocolate from other manufacturers—the first American company founded in the past 50 years to make chocolate “from bean to bar.” 🍫Scharffen Berger primarily produced chocolate bars, using small-batch processing and focusing on dark chocolate varieties with high cocoa solids content. We will share their chocolate bars, toffee, and caramels along with our featured Bordeaux blends during your private tastings all month long for February’s Month of Love.

Let us know you’re coming! We look forward to seeing you.
