Founded in 1983 by Rob Griffin and Deborah Barnard, Barnard Griffin has been producing Award Winning wines for over 30 years. Against the advice of his professors at U.C. Davis, who determined that Washington had too cool a climate to sustain wine grapes, Rob Griffin came to Washington in April 1977 to become Preston Winery's first winemaker. He quickly established himself as an accomplished artist by winning the first Best of Show at the Seattle Enological society's Northwest Wine Festival with his 1977 Chardonnay. Barnard Griffin is Washington State’s premier family owned winery. We are situated in south-central Washington at the confluence of the Yakima, Columbia, and Snake rivers, in the heart of Washington State's wine country. Stop by our tasting room in Richland, Washington and sample our award winning wines. When you visit the Tasting Room, you will find wines for tasting from both the Barnard Griffin Tulip Label wines as well as the limited production Reserve Label line. Also you can visit us on our Online Wine Shop www.BarnardGriffin.com.
