Memaloose Wines bring you the bright flavors of the Columbia Gorge AVA - America's most unique wine appellation. Our story is about a place, a family, and the love of good food.Grown and produced in a National Scenic Area by the McCormick Family, these wines are grown tocomplement food. Estate vineyard sites lie on both the Washington and Oregon slopes of the Columbia River, at various elevations and in distinct micro-climates spread throughout this exciting, young AVA. Our spectacular tasting room is located next to the Klickitat River bridge, at the corner of the Klickitat and Columbia Rivers in Lyle, Washington. Join us at the Tasting Room!

Winemaker Brian McCormick |
Winemaking is a means of preserving grapes. As in "putting up" other farm products (making jam, for instance), our skill is measured by the degree to which the process remains invisible in the final work - that is, our goal is to usher even the fruit's subtlest qualities from vine to glass in such a way that our labor leaves the least mark. (Of course, there is transformation too -fermentation is chaos close to magic—but this is not our artwork.) We are devoted to the expression of the site (above all) and the vintage and the specific nature of the each grape variety. These are intended to be wines for the table; as such, we avoid elevated alcohol levels and overt "oakiness." Harvest dates are selected so that the fruit itself may provide both balance and structure - particularly with regard to acidity. Please let us know how we're doing. |
