About Ellensburg Canyon Vista Winery
Wines from Ellensburg Canyon Vista Winery bear labels dedicated to their winery pup: "Ralf Rae," a German Spitz Mittel who was orphaned to the streets of Yakima. Rescued by a good friend who could not keep a dog, Ralf Rae became the vineyard dog who now loves wine grapes, romps through the vineyards, and keeps the varmints at bay.
Ralf Rae White, Red, Rose and Riesling table wines are all excellent examples of making fine wine from their unique Terroir at an affordable price point.
The tasting room is located on the Cox Canyon Vineyard property 8 miles South of Ellensburg, Washington; just off of Canyon Road (SR #821) at the mouth of the Yakima River Canyon. The Ellensburg Canyon Vista Winery Tasting Room is open by appointment. Call 509-933-3523 or e-mail: [email protected] to set up a date/time for a custom wine tasting.
