Ep 165What if your next great wine trip is hiding in the Columbia Gorge? After a recent trip to the Columbia Gorge, I knew I had to share more about this unique wine region. Sitting right on the border of Washington and Oregon, the Columbia Gorge is full of beautiful views, laid-back tasting rooms, and wineries producing everything from red, white, sparkling, orange, and dessert wines to unique grape varieties you may not see in other Washington wine regions. In this episode, I’m sharing a little bit of the history, geography, and climate that make the Columbia Gorge such an exciting place for wine. I’ll also walk you through some of the wineries I visited, a few spots that are still on my list, and practical tips for planning your own trip, including where to stay, where to eat, and how to map out your tasting itinerary.Whether you're planning a Pacific Northwest vacation or simply looking for your next wine adventure, the Columbia Gorge is a wine region worth adding to your list!Resources:My Trip to France: Jura Wine 101 - https://www.corkandfizz.com/blog/guide-to-wine-podcast-episode-79Inside the most underrated Wine Region in Washington w/ AniChe Cellars (Part 1) - https://www.corkandfizz.com/blog/guide-to-wine-podcast-episode-114A Washington Winery Built on Inclusion w/ AniChe Cellars (Part 2) - https://www.corkandfizz.com/blog/guide-to-wine-podcast-episode-115Episode Highlights:What makes the Columbia Gorge AVA uniqueWhy the Columbia Gorge is a must-visit wine destinationThe best wineries to add to your itineraryGrape varieties you'll discover throughout the regionWhere to stay during your visitRestaurants, bakeries, and wine bars worth stopping atTips for planning your winery routeTransportation options for a worry-free tasting dayHidden gems throughout the Columbia Gorge How to make the most of a Columbia Gorge wine getawayWhat did you think of the episode?
