Cathedral Ridge Winery

Oregon’s Winery of the Year 2007, Cathedral Ridge Winery is located in the middle of a forty-mile stretch in the Columbia Valley with micro-climates that almost perfectly duplicate four of the world’s most renowned grape-growing regions: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rhone and Rhine. Winemaker Michael Sebastini combines these superb grapes with a classic and time-honored winemaking process, which has resulted in more than 130 award-winning craft wines. Wine Press Northwest has also named Cathedral Ridge Winery one of the ‘Top 10 great Northwest Wine Country picnic spots,’ which is no surprise given the scenic vistas and lush vineyard. Experience what makes Cathedral Ridge so special. Visit the winery and tasting room in Hood River or shop online.

Oregon Travel: Columbia River Gorge

Eons of spewing volcanoes and cataclysmic floods created the Columbia River Gorge, where Oregon’s grandest river rolls through towering cliffs of basalt. Even Congress agreed this place was special. Twenty-five years ago, it named the Columbia River Gorge the country’s first National Scenic Area, protecting the Columbia’s most dramatic stretch, the eighty-five miles between the Sandy and Deschutes rivers.
