About Our Oregon Winery

Free Oregon Wine Tasting Daily 11-5

We hope you'll join us at our Hood River, Oregon Winery for a wonderful experience. You can take as long as you like. Enjoy our wines, bring a picnic and lunch on our grounds, or use Cathedral Ridge as the jumping off point for a memorable trip through the Columbia Gorge area and its' wines.

A Place Like No Other

The Columbia Gorge is a special place known for stunning vistas, pristine landscape and world famous windsurfing. It's also a premier grape growing region like no other, recently christened the Columbia Gorge AVA and the area is becoming famous for its wines. This Oregon winery sits in a terrific location high on a ridge above the Columbia Gorge with Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams as a backdrop. Robb Bell purchased Cathedral Ridge Winery (formerly Flerchinger Vineyards).

What's in a Name

Mt. Hood towers over the area at 11,239. Called Wyeast by Native Americans, legend has it that the passionate rivalry between two chiefs over the same woman led to their fiery transformation into active volcanoes, with Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams competing in majestic beauty for the affection of Mt. St. Helens.

When you look at Mt. Hood you'll notice a striking feature, a knife edge ridge running off the summit to the Northwest. This is Cathedral Ridge. Awe inspiring in its ruggedness, it is known by the local climbers as some of the most amazing climbing in the Pacific Northwest. Hard to find, but worth the trip. We thought it was a fitting moniker for our winery.

Magic in a Bottle

Due to the ideal micro-climates in the region, our Oregon winery boasts lovingly tended grapes and they are magnificent. The credit goes to our fabulous grape growers such as Lonnie Wright, John Bangsend, Clark Ziegler and others. Our Oregon wine harvests are locally gathered and wine crafting begins onsite using time honored traditions. But the magic doesn't stop there. Our winemaker is Michael Sebastiani, a fourth generation winemaker. He has an innate talent for creating magic in every bottle. Try our wine today.
