Set sail for the recreation mecca of the rivers. Wine lovers and explorers revel in adventure and tastings—we think Syrah tastes even better when sipped from the bow and overlooking the hills of the riverbank... after a hearty day of play in this Cascade playground—hike, kayak, raft, and skiff. It’s all impressive and all-inclusive.

Seasonal Variations
Like the lifecycle of the vine from flowering to harvest, the Columbia & Snakes Rivers experience a progression of climates. Follow the temperate rainforest of the western side—where rain and cooler temperatures are likely—to the desert of eastern Washington and Oregon. It’s a striking difference of both climates and scenery.
