Named from the three most prominent rivers in Eastern Washington, Columbia, Snake and Walla Walla, Three Rivers Winery has a style defined by moderate alcohols, firm structures and varietal accuracy. With peaceful views of Whitman Mission and the Blue Mountains in the distance, the winery sets atop a small knoll overlooking the surrounding vineyards.

Proprietor, Bill Foley truly preserves the land as he honors it by producing wines with exceptional qualities. The quest for quality is evident through winemaker Courtney Foley and her staff with a process that is light-handed, non-invasive and sustainable allowing the wines to emulate the personality and character of the vineyards. Named for the four daughters of its founders, the Black family, The Four Graces winery features sustainably farmed vineyards in the Willamette Valley with the goal of producing complex wines that are rich, elegant and delicious.
