Eight Bells
Eight Bells produces wines from Columbia Valley, Washington's expansive growing region. The winery's portfolio centers on distinctive expressions across both red and white varietals. Southern Voyage, a Rhône-style blend of Counoise, Cinsaut, Mourvèdre, Grenache, Syrah, and Marsanne, anchors the red program. The Pinot Gris offers a crisp white alternative, while Red Willow Vineyard Clonal Block Syrah showcases the region's capacity for structured, age-worthy reds. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Falstaff. Columbia Valley's continental climate and diverse soil types support the range of grapes Eight Bells works with, from cool-climate Pinot Gris to warm-weather Grenache and Syrah. The winery's focus on both Rhône blends and single varietals reflects the versatility of its terroir.
