Kestrel Vintners
Kestrel Vintners produces wines from Washington's Yakima Valley, a region defined by warm days, cool nights, and volcanic soils that shape bold reds and structured whites. The winery's portfolio centers on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay—varieties that thrive in Columbia Valley's continental climate. Lady In Red Cabernet Sauvignon leads the lineup, a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Decanter. The Signature Series Old Vine Merlot draws character from mature vines, while the Winemakers Select Series Wild Yeast Chardonnay reflects experimentation with native fermentation. These wines represent the winery's focus on varietal expression and precision winemaking in one of the Pacific Northwest's most established growing regions.
