Tucannon Cellars

We are a new family owned and operated winery located at the base of Red Mountain, in Benton City WA. We make small lots of hand crafted wine sourced from local vineyards. Our goal is to introduce truly hand-crafted Washington wines, at a reasonable price, while also providing a brief education and synopsis of each wine served. As of 2017 we have completed our wedding venue and event center. If you're hosting a special event in our area, we ask that you keep us in mind, as we are truly one of a kind!

We’re club members here and we are so happy with every wine we get. We joined because our first tasting there was shocking! We had never had a tasting where we were 100% impressed with each taste!

Purple Star Winery

Large winery production facility with our tasting room. Come taste our award winning wines and witness the daily process of winemaking. Tasting fee is $20 partially refunded with bottles purchased

Reviewed By Tillyseattle - Washington, United States

We have been wine club members now for about 1 1/2 years, and have been very impressed with Amy and Kyle’s wines. Very consistently excellent. They have 2 labels, and we’ve been equally impressed with both. We have not been disappointed in anything we’ve had from there. And it’s still a great tasting room experience.

Kiona Vineyards and Winery

We plant grapes. We grow grapes. We make wine. We sell wine. All on Red Mountain. And all as a family. Come taste wine.

Kiona boasts the oldest vines in the Red Mountain AVA. If you are looking for excellent, bold reds this is a great place to sample wine. My husband and I even joined their wine club, it was that good. Highly recommend their Heart of the Hill if you like a good Cab. Their Reserve cabernet is excellent as well.

Embrace the seamless relationship between food and wine with the Terra Blanca Vineyard Grill, featuring seating on the terrace offering breathtaking panoramic views of Yakima Valley and estate vineyard.

Terre Blanca is a vineyard that certainly for everyone is a MUST SEE when on the Red Mountain!! The view here looking north back toward Yakima is a one in a million view!!!! Simply outstanding!!!! Sitting out on the wine terrace, looking down on their beautiful pond and scanning your eyes up to the mountains and then to the side for the valley is awesome!!!!! Daryl Baker was our server and right now he gets my vote as the MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE server we have had on this wine sojourn!!!!!! He had unbelievable stories about the makings of each wine, the nuances of each wine, and regaled us time and time again with his expertise!!! We loved him!!!! He should start his own wine touring company and become more accessible to the general public on releasing more information on how to enjoy and love wines even more!!!! I bought two great private wine releases from him to enjoy back in Ohio on a charming lake in Morrow County!!!!!! Terre Blanca is no doubt a MUST SEE for the Red Mountain…. And it’s funny!! A lot of wineries here are must see but this really is a MUST SEE!!!!!!!!!

My wife and I love to take people here. It is such a great winery to visit. Such a great facility and the people there are always so friendly and amazing. We went there on our anniversary just to sit out back and have a bottle of wine, while viewing the valley!

The 4 of us scheduled a private tasting because we were only in the area 2 days and the winery tastings weren't open to the public on those days. Shelby was an knowledgeable, amazing host. We sampled several wines which were absolutely delicious! The owner, Len Parris, and the winemaker were in the building and the Len spent some time with us as well. Great experience and we will continue to enjoy their wines as club members. It's a must stop if you are in the area!
