24 Best Wineries near West Richland

“Amazing owners an amazing staff. We always feel so welcome and taken care of when we visit. A must stop if you’re visiting the red mountain AVA.“

“Kiona is both, a winery and a premium grape grower selling to other wineries. It is in the heart of Red Mountain and has been for 3 generations a key driving force for the establishment of this American Viticultiral Area, one of the smalest and more prestigious ones in the country.
JJ, co-owner and General Manager, was very gracious and devoted to us a long time and great explanations. He ran through the fields when he was a kid and that perspires in his conversation. He is an essential part of Kiona and Kiona is an essential part of him.
We started with a Sangiovese rose that had been recommened to me by a Portland winemaker and we walked through the vineyards while sipping such refreshing, precise and delicious wine. As JJ said, it was not a saignant, nor a blend, it was a wine with grapes grown meant to produce a rose. We continued with a delicious sage/mint/eucalyptus nuanced Chenin Blanc blended with Roussane and Viognier with some slight residual sugar. And then we went to the heavyweights, like their Lemberger (their oldest vineyard and the largest producer of this variatel in the country), Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Their Red Mountain Reserve, is a Cab blended with a bit of Merlot and Petit Verdot only produced in excellent vintages. We tasted the 2022 and I detected, amongst other more typical aromas in the ripe spectrum, quince, medium+ roast oak, tobacco leaf and dark chocolate. It was brambly and concentrated, extremely deep and long, and fulfilling. As my wife would say, fireworks in your mouth.
Fantastic! Thank you, JJ.“

“Fidelitas is such a great little winery spot — truly a gem in the area. The service was wonderful from the moment I walked in, and the team made me feel right at home. The food was really good, the wine was even better, and the view just puts it over the top.

I can’t say enough great things about this place. It’s a must‑visit if you’re in the area. They treat you like family, and the whole experience is warm, relaxing, and memorable.“

“Wine steward Kevin was a real pro keeping multiple tested happy. Easy to access location and amazing Malbecs!“

““Not enough producers are working with #Sémillon— which I don't understand because when done right, is an amazing grape! I’m grateful that #calebfoster at Gunpowder Creek Winery has created a stellar bottle in a dry fashion. It’s full-bodied with hints of lemon on the palate, fig on the nose. Even with its fantastic mouth-feel, it still comes in at only 12.5%. This will be my go-to fall/winter white!” —Tony Vincent (artist/producer/sommelier)“

“Terrific wines, certainly worth a visit!“

“nice tasting room....nice options for tasting. great wine, friendly people“

“We just had an amazing experience here! $15 tasting fee, waived with bottle purchase. This is a family friendly winery with plenty of shady grass for picnic blankets (and bubbles, etc ?). Our family recommends stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Our mid day reservation was a perfect pick me up my husband and I needed during this uniquely hard time in our lives. We were immediately seated with an excellent view that exposed parted of the hills I've always wondered about, but never saw! It was a hot day but the outdoor deck ceiling kept us very shaded. Aarika was delightful and attentive, gave us wonderful recommendations! Her idea to split up the pizza flavors allowed for us to try the cherry bacon, blueberry goat, AND the red desire. They were incredible! Paired well with our wine flights which are a must. Cannot wait to be back as soon as we get a free moment.“

“One of the most memorable wine tasting experiences we have ever had. We were fortunate to be there when Seth the wine maker was there. He was so gracious and we learned so much from him about the wine making process the grapes and the history of this small family owned business. We sat in the vineyard literally and even got to taste some of the grapes right off of the vine! And the wines are all delicious!! We will most certainly be back.“

“I have yet to try one of their wines, but Kelly, an owner helped me select a champagne at the Costco in Kennewick. She went out of her way to help me despite the fact I wasn’t purchasing any wine from her.

I am excited to try a market vineyard wine. I’m sure it’ll be as warm and pleasant as Kelly was. Thank you Kelly!“

“Went today with 2 friends, Stephanie & June. We had excellent food, Riesling was also good. Steph had a Southwest chicken salad, June had a hearty soup & a tasty bread & I had the sirloin steak with Tomato soup & Caesar Salad. It was all excellently cooked, plated beautifully. June & I shared a popcorn topped cheesecake which was divine. A single waitress covered 3 sections & served us in a timely manner!“

“Wonderful wine in a beautiful location! I left here thinking "wow, I can't wait to come back."“

“Great food and wine. Wait staff ok.“

“OMG!!! What a hidden GEM. A small group of us visited this past weekend for an event. They had live music. Food by Casa Rosita Taqueria (Local Benton City restaurant). They were short staffed BUT, great service by Jackie (I hope that was her name) SO AMAZINGLY FAST and FRIENDLY!! We had a wonderful time. The wine was spectacular. The place looks like a park. It is a must if you are in the area. And if you're not in the area, make a trip just to visit. The owners Thomas and Ana Marie (Sp) stopped at the table to chat and that was when we had the most fun. Thank you for your hospitality.“

“Stopped here to do a wine tasting and wound up staying for lunch and then coming back for their monthly three course dinner later in the evening. The wine was some of the best we tasted in the Red Mountain area, and the food was just as spectacular. Katie who did our tasting was very knowledgeable and told us so much about both the wine and the region as well as how things are grown. She provided excellent wine recommendations and also let us compare and contrast some of the different wines which really made for a great tasting experience. If I lived in the area I would definitely come back often for both the food and the wine, but we had to settle with ordering some to be shipped home.“

“Great wine and fun atmosphere“

“Absolutely beautiful treat up in the breezy, tree covered hills. It was at least ten degrees cooler than in town.
Wine was delicious. So cool they have organic options! Friendly staff, especially the sweet girl with purple hair. Sorry we didn’t get your name!
But, we’ll never forget this perfect summer afternoon and that breeze.“

“Our visit to Col Solare was nothing short of world class in every aspect of the word. From the time we hit the parking lot until the time we checked out we were treated like family, nothing short of VIP service. Although our tasting was advertised to be just 3 wines we were treated to just about everything on the menu. Each wine was presented to us in nice stemware and not once did we reuse a glass. Monica was officially our server but we were also spoiled by Ian and Eddie. All three were very knowledgeable of the wine we were being served as well as the wines of Eastern Washington. We enjoyed every wine we tasted but did have a couple standouts. The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon, 2015 Malbec and the 2016 Syrah were all standouts. Wines are priced at the luxury level but seem reasonable in comparison to comparable wines in Napa. Our visit to Col Solare was indeed memorable. I only wish we would have saved it for last because now all other wineries in Eastern Washington will be judged based on Col Solare. Is that fair? Don't care, I am on vacation and therefore I make the rules... For this visit I give Col Solare 5 stars. Woohoo! As good as it gets!“

“Great setting and ambiance. ♥️🍷“

“We enjoyed staying at the RV parking (Harvest Host). We did tasting one day. Then second day we bought a bottle of C4 (cab). The owners are very friendly and accommodating. The dog, buddy is friendly. There is a black lab too. I am not sure might be neighbor. He will walk right into RV to visit, super friendly. The area is beautiful. The Red Mountain will keep you busy for days, just saying. If in the area you need to stop in. If you have an RV this is your top pick for Harvest Host.“

“Food and wine are delicious. Wonderfully varried menu that has something for all tastes. My husband and I got 2 appetizers and a pizza to share. I absolutely recommend the bacon wrapped dates, they tasted phenomenal. Drinks were delicious of course.

The ONLY somewhat bad thing that stood out to me was the seating. It was very close together. I ended up getting up because an elderly women sitting behind me with a walker needed to get through. I absolutely did not mind getting up for her, of course. But even without the walked, it's really cramped to get through of the dinning room is full. (We dined inside, I can't tell you if this is true of outside)

I'm just more concerned if there is an emergency, it's a bit of a hazard, and again, was not easily accessible for people with disabilities or the elderly.
Other than that, fantastic winery' and restaurant. Delicious food and would absolutely come back.“

“Fun evening with the Knutzen brothers.“
