Celebrating 50 years of viticultural innovation

Pioneers

Sagemoor’s parent company, Allan Bros. Inc. is a multi-generational family owned and operated company with a rich history in agriculture beginning in the 1930’s in the Yakima Valley. In 2014, Allan Brothers purchased Sagemoor Vineyards from its original founders who began planting vineyards in 1972. For fifty years, Sagemoor Vineyards has provided premium wine grapes from our iconic vineyards to dozens of the most renowned wineries and winemakers in Washington.

Our vineyards

Sagemoor’s properties include over 1,300 acres of planted vineyards, comprised of six separate vineyards: Bacchus, Dionysus, Gamache and Sagemoor are located in the White Bluffs AVA along the Columbia River near Pasco, WA. Weinbau is located in the Wahluke Slope AVA near Mattawa, WA and Southwind near Milton-Freewater, OR in the Walla Walla Valley AVA.

Sustainability

Since 1972 our commitment has been and continues to be respect for the land and those caring for it. Our vineyards have thrived through the wind, snow and harsh temperatures of Eastern Washington. Minimal intervention is our philosophy for farming practices, ensuring positive impact to the ecosystem, our employees and our community in every step we take while tending the vines. Sagemoor vineyards are certified sustainable through SustainableWA or LIVE Certified.

Bacchus is one of six vineyards managed by Sagemoor. Located on the east side of the White Bluffs AVA and 15 miles north of Tri-Cities, WA, and has 180 acres planted to wine grapes. Next door to our Dionysus Vineyard, they share a commanding view to the west overlooking the mighty Columbia River and the Rattlesnake Mountains.
Sagemoor has 10 acres of 1972 Cabernet plantings, a great source for “old vine” Washington Cab. Sagemoor grows Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Barbera, Malbec, Sangiovese, and Grenache for reds. Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Roussane, and Chardonnay for white.
Dionysus Vineyard is one of six vineyards managed by Sagemoor. Located on the east side of the Columbia River and 15 miles north of the Tri-Cities, WA, Dionysus resides in the White Bluffs AVA and has 150 acres of wine grapes. It is next door to our Bacchus Vineyard.
In 1981 Weinbau was planted to Riesling, Chardonnay, and Gewurztraminer. It still has some original Riesling and Chard vines from that 1981 planting, but now also grows Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec, Mourvedre, Merlot, Carmenere, Grenache, and Cabernet Franc. Incidentally, Weinbau has one of the largest Cab Franc crops in Washington.
Gamache sits above the white bluffs overlooking Basin City to the east with 180 acres of wine grapes. The highest elevation is 960 feet with a gentle, mile-long southwestern slope ending at 840 feet. Bordering the east side of the vineyard is a 300-foot drop to the valley floor, towards Basin City.
Southwind Vineyard was acquired in 2021, marking Sagemoor’s entry into Walla Walla Valley. Located just west of Milton-Freewater, on the Oregon side of the Walla Walla Valley, Southwind Vineyard includes over 300 acres, with 70 acres of developed acreage. Several of the Northwest’s top wineries have featured the vineyard in premium wines, including Dusted Valley, Domaine Serene and Devison.

At the heart of our vineyards is a team of incredible people whose innovation and passion for the land honors the legacy and history of the vines.
