ILLAHE VINEYARDS AND WINERY, INC.
At Illahe, our goal is to make wine as naturally as possible from soil to bottle. We work by hand on small lots with age-old techniques and materials. Our focus is to grow and make quality Pinot Noir and white wines that express the vintage and their varietal characteristics. Some of our wines are made entirely by hand, with no electricity or modern mechanization. We utilize draft horses in the vineyard as well as a bicycle pump to craft our 1899 Pinot Noir. Illahe is a LIVE-certified Salmon Safe vineyard and a member of the Deep Roots Coalition.
