Columbia River Gorge Wineries

"A World of Wine in Forty Miles". That's the motto for the Columbia Gorge Winegrowers. America's most unique wine region is located less than an hour east of Portland, Oregon. Straddling the mighty Columbia River, the Columbia Gorge Growing Region includes the fertile soils of both Washington and Oregon. From the marine influenced climate of Underwood Mountain to the arid dry land of the Eastern Gorge, from Albarino to Zinfandel, the grapes and wines of this unique region are a spectacular selection of sweet whites and luscious reds.

The wineries span the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area through 40 miles of peaceful, open-roads running through double mountain views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams. Enjoy the many Columbia Gorge wineries that sit just a scenic drive from Skamania.
