Established 1995

• 69 vineyard acres (28 hectares) of vinifera grapes planted.
• There are approximately 45 wineries located within the greater Puget Sound region.
• The temperate climate rarely suffers from prolonged freezes in winter and enjoys long mild and dry summers.
• The core area of this appellation has a growing season that is drier and sunnier than many classic wine grape growing regions in Europe.
• Semi-permeable cemented subsoil allows the deep-rooted vinifera vines to survive the late summer soil water deficit.
• Precipitation averages 15 inches (38cm) to 30 inches per year, mostly falling in the winter dormant season, with a growing season of over 180 days.
• Madeleine Angevine, Siegerebbe and Muller-Thurgau are the predominant varietals.
• Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir also show promise in this appellation.
