The family’s winery is nestled in the middle of orchards on family land in the Ahtanum Valley west of Yakima. There is a wonderful view of the orchards and hills to the south. The building was originally a shop used for orchard operations. Temperature and humidity control has been added for the barrel room and jacketed stainless steel tanks have been installed in the production room.

In the days of the Roman Empire the Allobroges were a Celtic people living in the Rhone Valley of France who received acclaim for their dark, rich red wines made from the Allobrogica vine. This blend from four vineyards in the Columbia Valley creates a wine that embodies the essence of Rhone varieties in Washington.
