Sheridan Vineyard: Crafting World-Class Wines with Beauty and Balance

Sheridan Vineyard is a Yakima Valley winery that has been creating world-class wines for over two decades. Founded in 1996 by Scott Greer, Sheridan Vineyard is known for its commitment to crafting wines of richness, beauty, and balance. With a focus on sustainable farming practices and meticulous attention to detail in the winemaking process, Sheridan Vineyard has become one of the most respected wineries in Washington State.

The vineyards at Sheridan are located on a south-facing slope overlooking the Yakima River. The unique terroir of this region provides ideal growing conditions for grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Syrah and Chardonnay. The vines are planted at high density to encourage competition between them which results in lower yields but higher quality fruit.

At Sheridan Vineyard they believe that great wine starts with great grapes. That's why they take such care in their farming practices. They use only organic fertilizers and pest control methods that are gentle on the environment while still producing healthy vines and delicious fruit.

Once the grapes have been harvested by hand from their estate vineyards or carefully selected from other top vineyards around Washington State they undergo rigorous sorting before being fermented using traditional techniques like open-top fermentation tanks or barrel fermentations depending on varietal characteristics.

The resulting wines are richly textured with complex flavors that reflect both the terroir of their origin as well as the skillful hands of their winemakers. Whether you're looking for a bold red wine like their flagship L'Orage blend or something lighter like their Albariño white wine you'll find it at Sheridan Vineyard.

In addition to producing exceptional wines Sheridan also offers visitors an unforgettable tasting experience at its tasting room located just outside Zillah WA where guests can sample their wines while enjoying stunning views of the surrounding vineyards. The tasting room is open daily from 11 am to 5 pm and offers a variety of tasting options including flights, by-the-glass pours, and bottle sales.

Sheridan Vineyard has received numerous accolades over the years for its exceptional wines including being named one of Wine & Spirits Magazine's Top 100 Wineries in the World in both 2017 and 2018. They have also been awarded high scores from top wine critics such as Robert Parker, Wine Spectator, and James Suckling.

In conclusion, Sheridan Vineyard is a Yakima Valley winery that produces world-class wines with beauty and balance. Their commitment to sustainable farming practices combined with meticulous attention to detail in the winemaking process results in richly textured wines that reflect both the terroir of their origin as well as the skillful hands of their winemakers.
