Here in the Columbia Gorge AVA we are blessed to have a massive variety of wine grapes.
In the world of wine, few varietals command the same level of respect and admiration as the noble Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are a favorite among winemakers and enthusiasts, known for their deep color, rich flavors, and exceptional aging potential. To truly appreciate this iconic grape, one must delve into the captivating journey of Cabernet grapes on the vine.
From the planting time, is can take three years to get the first harvest. One winemaker told me once that it takes 7 years from raw land to a glass of wine.
