From the sandy soils of Conner Lee Vineyard, in the Columbia Valley; west to the petrified tree fossils lining the soil in StoneTree Vineyard, in the Wahluke Slope; southeast to the loam soils of Red Mountain, these grapes are survivors. The vines endure blistering Eastern Washington summers and icebox winters- they say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger? This torture by Mother Nature yields bold, structured, and complex reds and rich, fruit-driven, whites.  For Jerry the chemist, turned police officer, turned winemaker and his wife Jennifer the crime reporter; Guardian Wines is all about family, friendship, laughter, and fun. And making amazing wines from Washington’s best vineyards!
