Maragas Winery is rooted in the deep wine-making and drinking traditions of the Old World. Yet, with our unique, agriculturally rich setting in the high desert of Central Oregon, we uncork old-world winemaking for a contemporary planet, with new grape-growing innovations and fresh ways to connect with fellow wine lovers.
Much like blending the sensibilities of ancient Greece with the fresh air and attitudes of Central Oregon, Maragas brings together art and science, passion and expertise, and other diverse elements to create a wonderfully immersive experience. For special occasions, moments and toasts, or simply celebrating the good life, good health and good fun, Maragas wines should never be kept bottled up.

Featured Event
Our Featured Wines of the Month
New Release: Dry Riesling Cuvée 23
From our Estate Vineyard in Central Oregon, this Cuvée is a blend of fruit harvested in 2023 and 2024. Comprised of Riesling clones 9, 198 and 239. Naturally allowed to ferment to dryness in barrels to .04% remaining residual sugar. Barrel Aged in seasoned oak 24 months for the 2023 vintage and 12 months for the 2024 vintage. Classically crisp and dry Riesling with barrel softening of Riesling flavors and acidity. On lees 11 months, ABV 13.8%. 124 cases produced. Ingredients: grapes, yeast, clay, and sulfur. Filtered by physical means with inert paper sheets of limited porousness to extract yeast.
New Release: Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot harvested from the Rattlesnake Hills. Part of our Heritage Series which embodies the pinnacle of our family winemaking tradition of extended arid barrel room aging. 72 months of barrel aging - extensive by any standard. The result is akin to a sauce reduction in cooking, or the famed raisining of grapes prior to fermentation done in the Amarone region. The flavors start singular and, over time, meld to become multifaceted. On lees 11 months, 37% seasoned, 37% new American, and 26% new French Oak. 0% residual sugar. Ingredients: grapes, yeast, bacteria, sulfur. Unfiltered and unfined.
Featured Item
A Culinary Gem - Aunt Mary's Mother Wine Vinegar
7 year barrel aged wine vinegar.
We use our centuries old vinegar mother handed down to our winemaker from his Great Aunt Mary, on his mother's side of the family. The vinegar mother was brought to the US from Rome, Italy many years ago. The vinegar is nutty and concentrated. An Excellent ingredient to flavor foods. Add a dash to flavor your favorite dish.
