Central Oregon's own natural winery is flourishing.
Our winery is located in a beautiful area of Central Oregon. Couched between the beautiful rock formations of Smith Rock and seven peaks of the majestic Cascade Mountains, our visitors relax on our patio and lawn and soak up our views. More About Maragas Winery >
2017 Harvest has begun!
We carefully and painstakingly harvest our fruit by hand. Our estate vines have their fruiting canes just above ground level - making it very difficult to pick and providing lower yields. We endure this training method because it provides the highest quality fruit in our vineyard. Pictured, Atanancio is snipping the stem of a cluster of grapes destined for another medal winning fruit forward yet crisp "Blanco." |
Harvested Saturday September 16, 2017
This photo depicts the contents of a half-ton picking bin containing a field blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. This blend is part of the magical threesome ( with Pinot Munier) that result in sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France. Here at Maragas Winery, these same varietals from our estate vineyard will be blended with previously harvested (and fermenting) select estate varietals, then transferred to barrels to finish fermenting to result in our medal winning white wine blend - "Blanco". |
