Founded by the Monson Family in 1999, Goose Ridge is an estate winery dedicated to handcrafting exquisite wines from grapes grown on their 1.400 acre vineyard. With three generations of diversified agriculture in the Columbia Valley, the Monson family believes that great wines start in the vineyard. We are committed to producing consistent, high quality, memorable wines through sound viticulture practices, site selection with low yield vineyards and artisan winemaking. Our winemaker, Kendall Mix works closely with our vineyard manager to indentify the best blocks in our Estate Vineyard. Wine lovers can choose between single varietal wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Riesling, or they can challenge their palate with our signature blends g3, Vireo and Sol Duc.
