Pheasant Valley Wines Pheasant Valley wines are made with grapes grown on the estate vineyard or locally, all within the Columbia Gorge or Columbia Valley appellations. The diverse climate in these appellations allow for the cultivation of almost any wine, rivaling the most famous grape-growing regions of the world. What makes our region one-of-a-kind?

Visit the DWP website Estate Organic Wines "Gail and I believe in the progressive Oregon tradition of winemaking. Using every new technique available to improve our wine, yet respecting the sustainable truths that allow Mother Nature to produce her very best. Though technology plays an important part in any modern winery, winemaking is still a delicate art form. It takes an experienced hand to know how to prepare the land for the growing season, when the grapes are at their peak of readiness and how to create a wine that is balanced, deep in complexity and rich in flavor and finish" - Scott Hagee Organic Certifications The wines made from our estate grapes are certified as being made with organically grown grapes and are processed using organic winemaking techniques and bears the logo of the Oregon Tilth and USDA Certifications. The baseline definition of organic wine is "wine made with grapes farmed organically", deals only with the first phase of the organic certification process. Organic winemaking (i.e. fermentation of the grapes into wine, bottling etc.) is the second. We purchase additional grapes from select local vineyards who also practice many of the same organic farming techniques. Once at our winery all the grapes are processed using strict organic winemaking techniques, minimal processing and no use of chemical additives. We pay particular attention to three factors: the use of yeasts, the filtration/fining method, and the use of sulfur dioxide. Working Winery Calendar Great wine starts in the vineyard. Maintenance and care of our estate vineyards is a yearlong process. Please follow us throughout the year as Gail & I share our story of activities here at Pheasant Valley Winery and Vineyards. working winery calendar

All Wines INDUSTRY REVIEWS "Wine of the Week" - Wines Northwest A Classic Gewürztraminer" "Made from fruit harvested at the famed Celilo Vineyard in the Columbia Gorge, this Gewürztraminer is semi-sweet and is a great accompaniment to Asian fare if one prefers the sweeter dinner wine style, or with cheese and shortbread after dinner as a dessert wine. The aroma is classic Gewürztraminer with lychee and floral notes playing over pear and peach. Flavors of stone fruits and floral perfume mark the succulent palate"
