The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1997 by pioneering brothers Butch and Jerry Milbrandt, this estate helped put Washington State's Wahluke Slope on the global winemaking map. Renowned for its diverse microclimates and sustainable farming, the family-run winery showcases the bold, pure fruit character unique to the Pacific Northwest.

How it is made

Milbrandt Vineyards was established in 1997 by brothers Butch and Jerry Milbrandt, who recognized the immense grape-growing potential of Washington State's Columbia Valley. By farming in the arid, gravelly soils of the Wahluke Slope and Ancient Lakes AVAs, their winery & vineyard operation consistently yields concentrated and structured fruit.
