Cayuse Vineyards
A brief history
Cayuse Vineyards owns five vineyards with over 50 acres of land currently planted. From this land we currently create 11 estate wines totaling 4500 cases under the direction of French Vigneron, Christophe Baron. As the first biodynamically farmed estate in the Walla Walla Valley, Cayuse focuses its efforts in the vineyards. The goal is to create food-friendly wines that express unique individuality, personality and character. Our wines are made with minimal intervention, as we try to protect the minerality and other aromas and flavors the vineyards give to the wine. The wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.
