Yakima Valley Vintners is busy harvesting and crushing. It looks like it will be another great year for the Yakima Valley.
Yakima Valley Vintners released what is destined to become the next cult wine from the Yakima Valley in Washington. During the 2008 Spring Barrel Tasting, the students of the Vineyard & Winery Technology Program released their inaugural bottling.
The tasting room in Grandview is currently only open on event weekends. If you would like to order wine, please contact Trent Ball at 509.882.7007.

Spring Barrel Tasting weekend in the Yakima Valley features winemakers and cellar staff who are on hand to share insights and answer questions on the winemaking process. Many of the 50 participating wineries make special efforts to enhance the wine tasting experience by adding delicious cheese, sauces, salsas, and even desserts to the mix along with special tastings and education.
