Tunnel Hill Winery

From Grapes to Wine

At Tunnel Hill we believed that the grapes should speak for themselves. The grapes for our flagship wines—Riesling, Syrah, and Pinot Noir—come from 7 acres of vineyards that were planted starting in 2001 on our family land on the south shore of Lake Chelan. More recent additions of Viognier, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon, allowed us to use approximately 95% of our own fruit for our wine production. Our estate vineyards are farmed with diligence to express our unique soils and climate and are vinted with a careful hand to allow those qualities to shine in the finished wines. In particular, our Pinot Noir, planted in clone 113 is a statement piece of Tunnel Hill wines exhibiting a distinctly earthy, spicy style of this classic Burgundian wine.

While Tunnel Hill Winery, is no longer producing wines, these vineyards continue to live on and produce wines used by other local wineries. We hope you enjoy these fruits as they shine under the hands of other local winemakers.
