COLUMBIA STAR IS BORN

Despite being the source for some of the most exciting white wines being produced in the new world today, the Columbia Valley is still virtually unknown. This dramatic, steep, rocky region is one of the most dramatic landscapes in the entire world of wine.

Portfolio's Columbia Valley vineyards are blessed with an incredible southwestern exposure within view of the Columbia River. Benefiting from prolonged sun exposure and consistently long, even growing seasons allows Portfolio to ripen fully and evenly, leading to a wine graced with a rich mid-palate, caressing mouthfeel and voluptuous fruit.
