Property Info

Description

We have available for acquisition vineyard property located in the Red Mountain American Viticultural Area (AVA), a sub-appellation of the Columbia Valley AVA. This asset is located in Southeast Washington State, approximately three miles East of Benton City, WA in Benton County. The property is accessed via a 60 ft. wide road access easement. The easement goes North to connect to SR 224.

The property is part of the Red Mountain American Viticultural Area. The AVA is located on a southwest-facing slope in south central Washington and is the smallest, warmest wine-grape growing region in Washington State. The price per ton on grapes that are harvested from the Red Mountain AVA are three times higher than other AVA’s in the area. The unique combination of diverse geology, gentle south slope, consistent winds and heat profile allow for the varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah to be highly recognized as producing some of the world’s finest wine.
