Goodnoe Station | Goodnoe Hills, Washington

INTRODUCTION Overlooking the Columbia River Gorge, Goodnoe Station graces the southwesterly bluffs of Goodnoe Hills in the heart of Washington’s wine country. This prime location at the southern end of the esteemed Columbia Valley AVA is adjacent to the V75 Vineyard. This property benefits from its unique location in the rain shadow of the Cascade Mountains, a region celebrated for its diverse microclimates and soil variations. This will allow Goodnoe Station to produce grapes with the distinct character and complexity that the adjacent V75 Vineyard is known for. The terroir, a combination of climate, soil, and topography, significantly shapes the flavors and aromas of the grapes grown here. Goodnoe Station also shares similar latitudes as the finest wine regions in the world, such as Burgundy, Bordeaux, and Lyon.

This offering includes blocks V9, V10, and V11, which consist of 786.29± surveyed gross acres with 500 approximate tillable acres of unplanted, south-facing land. The varying altitudes are conducive to growing multiple grape varietals. The warm, sun-kissed slopes of the lower valleys foster the growth of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and Malbec, while the higher plateaus with their cooler breezes are well suited to growing crisp whites such as Chardonnay, Reisling, and Pinot Gris. This land is a true testament to the synergy between soil, climate, and grape varietals and showcases an extraordinary diversity of microclimates, elevations, and soil types. This is the foundation upon which exceptional grapes are grown as demonstrated by the adjacent V75 Vineyard.

The land’s rolling topography is not only beautiful but the climate is known for having the highest heat units in the state. This allows local vineyards to have a later hang than many other vineyards in the state. With water rights from the Columbia River and a gently sloping southwest orientation, Goodnoe Station is the perfect balance of environmental elements for cultivating world-class grapes.

AREA HISTORY The history of Goodnoe Hills in the Columbia River Gorge is rich and diverse. The forces of nature, human endeavors, and a deep-rooted connection to the land are all factors in the evolution of the region’s agriculture, viticulture, and the pursuit of quality in winemaking. The Columbia Valley AVA was officially established in 1984, encompassing over eleven million acres. The Goodnoe Station land blankets the sloped terrain on the north side of the Columbia River.

The geological history of the area is vital to understanding its viticultural capacity. The Missoula Floods, a series of cataclysmic events during the last Ice Age, resulted from the periodic bursting of Glacial Lake Missoula’s ice dams. As this massive lake breached its natural barrier, it unleashed torrents of water and carved channels throughout the region, creating iconic features such as the Columbia River Gorge. The floods also deposited rich sediment, creating fertile soils that later proved ideal for grape cultivation.

In the spring of 1806, Lewis and Clark’s historic expedition set foot on Goodnoe Hills on their journey to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory and find a water route to the Pacific Ocean. At Goodnoe Hills, Lewis and Clark engaged in their customary scientific observation and cartographic mapping activities. The journals of Lewis and Clark provide valuable insights into the region’s natural history and the challenges faced by the expedition.

The area’s modern history as a wine-producing region began in the mid-20th century. Pioneering winemakers recognized the unique attributes of the region’s terroir, including its warm days, cool nights, and well-draining soils. These factors laid the foundation for a wine industry that is amongst the finest in the world.

WATER SOURCES | WATER RIGHTS The irrigation water source via Continuity Wells is located on the lower bench of the V75 Vineyard. A Continuity Well is drilled inland from the edge of the Columbia River down to sub-surface water that is connected to, or in “continuity” with, the river’s aquifer. This is an approved and permitted method by the Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE). This also provides a reliable and virtually inexhaustible supply of irrigation water. Future irrigation well locations for V9, V10, and V11 are located and approved. The project hydro-engineers estimate that one large production well (20” cased) can irrigate approximately 500 vineyard acres. Therefore, this listing provides a Well Agreement that designates a stand-alone well for V9, one for V10, and one for V11.

WATER RIGHTS: The senior water rights are leased from the local Klickitat County Public Utility District 01. This is a 50-year lease with options to extend.

WATER PERMIT: The Water Permit is issued by DOE, and like the Water Rights, the permit has been quad-furcated. Each permit allows for a 1-acre feet per year of water to be used per acre of new vineyard land, all with a cubic feet per second maximum flow rate. This amount of water (1AF/YR per Vineyard Acre) is in keeping with the accepted vineyard water requirements of the region.

UTIILITY EASEMENT: The Irrigation Wells will be drilled on the lower bench and then pumped up the grade to the north to serve V9, V10, and V11. Piping, electrical grid power, and vehicular access will be routed through this 60’ wide easement. A buyer may elect to run one, two, or three irrigation main lines up this corridor to the specific vineyard.

MINERAL RIGHTS All mineral rights appurtenant to the property and owned by the seller will convey to the buyer at closing. Mineral rights are not guaranteed. It is suggested that the buyer conduct a mineral search with a title company.
