In 2014, we left our careers in California for a new life in the Pacific Northwest, looking to find our place in the wine industry. After Matt returned to school to study enology and spent time working with several Washington wineries, we stumbled upon a small vineyard on the Southside of Walla Walla.

Planted with uncommon Italian varieties, these 5 acres became Grosgrain Vineyards, a wine company dedicated to championing underdog grapes, sparkling wines, minimal intervention winemaking, and sustainable farming practices.

Located on a small hilltop just above the Walla Walla Valley floor at an elevation of 785 feet, Old Milton Vineyard is the site of our winery, tasting room, and Casa Grosgrain. The property is planted to 2 acres of Nebbiolo and Aglianico, which were existing plantings, as well as Grenache and Carignane planted in 2018. The soils consist of deep and well-drained Walla Walla silt loam, which is typical of the area.
