CHALLENGER RIDGE

"Washington's Premier Pinot Noir Vineyard & Winery"

Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars is located 60 miles Northeast of Seattle, on the banks of the Skagit River, in the foothills of the majestic North Cascade Mountain Range.  The original farm was homesteaded over 100 years ago and crossed over into this century as a family farm.  The farmhouse has been updated but kept intact and is our tasting room today.  In 1999, a Frenchman, studied the lay of the land, the soils and sun hours offered in the area and came upon this property to plant a vineyard and try his hand at winemaking.  The birth of Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars had begun.

Today, a partnership of seven owners have begun a vision of making Challenger Ridge a destination winery.  The groundwork has begun with developement of the expansion of the vineyard, fishing excursions, horseback riding and biking trails, bocce ball courts, hiking trails.  The property is currently being platted, to offer you the opportunity to purchase a wine bungalow for you to use as a rental property or a vacation home for the whole family to enjoy.

The seasons at Challenger Ridge are full of activities with the summer months bringing both young and old alike to the vineyard.    Fall brings color and vibrancy to the vineyard and it's surrounding hillsides along with the big harvest and crush and the stocking up of wines for the holiday season rush while winter allows the vineyards to rest and get ready for the first buds of spring.
