Columbia Gorge Wine Country:
Officially designated the "Columbia Gorge" appellation in July 2004, the Columbia Gorge viticultural area covers 280 square miles and straddles the Columbia River in Washington and Oregon for 15 miles. In conjunction with the Columbia Valley viticultural area of Washington, hundreds of vineyard acres occupy a variety of terroirs throughout the Gorge. You'll find an ample number of wineries scattered along Oregon's Interstate 84 and Washington's two-lane Hwy 14, as well as on the plateau lands above the vertical walls of the Gorge.

Rainier, the lake, and the forest. For more information call 1-541-386-6366. To get there, take Tucker Rd out of town towards Parkdale.
