Experience the difference with us. Where hospitality meets home.
Nestled amidst the rapidly urbanizing East Vancouver, just 15 minutes from Portland International Airport, lies English Estate Winery - a historic oasis offering a glimpse of tranquility. For five generations, our family has nurtured the fertile land of this once-forested plain, transforming it into a thriving vineyard and esteemed winery.
A Legacy Spanning Five Generations
Our story begins in 1903 when Carl S. English, a well-educated man with a vision for the future, settled on this land with his family. From generating electricity for the farm with innovative technology to planting the seeds of a future vineyard, his spirit has guided our journey. Today, we proudly continue his legacy, crafting exceptional wines from estate-grown fruit.
Crafting Exquisite Wines
Our dry-farmed vineyards, bordered by the Columbia River, are graced with 100 feet of unique gravelly loam soil. This exceptional soil, combined with careful handcrafting techniques, allows us to produce exceptional wines bursting with flavor and character. We prioritize sustainability, allowing the vines to thrive naturally, drawing moisture from deep underground aquifers.
Experiencing the English Estate Difference
At English Estate Winery, we believe in creating a holistic experience for our visitors. Our spacious tasting room offers breathtaking views of the vineyards and a cozy ambiance to enjoy a flight of our award-winning wines. We welcome groups and encourage picnics on our sprawling grounds.
