Stillwater Creek Vineyard

Stillwater Creek Vineyard is a 235 acre site on the Royal Slope of the Frenchman Hills.  Planted in 2000 on a steep, south-facing slope with one of the most diverse clone selections in Washington State, Stillwater Creek quickly has earned a reputation as one of the Columbia Valley's top vineyards.

The site's fractured rock and extreme southern exposure are ideal for reds, especially Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah.  White grapes are planted on a mixture of fractured rock and areas of fine sandy loam.

Temperatures during the growing season favor warm days and cool nights.  Grapes ripen beautifully under these conditions, enhanced by both hours of light per day during the summer and the total number of sunlight days from bud-break through harvest.
