Welcome

At Ryan Patrick Vineyards we take great pride in the fact that we grow our own grapes on land that has been in the family for three generations. We take equal pride in converting our estate grown grapes into wine. We cut no corners in either of the activities because we know that premium quality wines demand premium quality grapes in the fields, and precise and careful handling in the winery.

Our vineyards in North Central Washington lie on lands near the banks of the Columbia River. We’re in a region near Quincy, WA soon to be listed as the Ancient Lakes AVA, which, when granted, will be Washington’s newest viticulture area. Growing season in the AVA is long. Daytime temperatures are very warm, but evening breezes temper the daytime highs and cool the fruit. Most of that cool air is the direct result of the location of the Cascade Range and the cooling temperatures that sweep down from the upper elevations to cross the eastern foothills. Our growing season provides a perfect climate for ripening our red grapes. We grow Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Syrah grapes.

Nearby, but several hundred feet higher in elevation, we grow our white varietals. Our Chardonnay from our "homestead vineyard", has received many awards and is featured in both our "Naked" Chardonnay and our "Reserve" barrel fermented Chardonnay.

Vineyards are under the direct supervision of Ryan Flanagan, the "Ryan" in Ryan Patrick Vineyards. Ryan came to the family venture after having worked at a number of positions at Chateau St. Michele. Ryan has worked for and with the leaders in the industry and is a former member of the board of the Washington Association of Wine Grape Growers.

Winemaking is conducted under the supervision of Craig Mitrakul. Craig’s extensive education in Food Science and Enology and his world-wide winemaking experiences, including stints with noted Washington winemakers such as Charlie Hoppes, Mike Januik, Kendall Mix and Holly Turner, have caused Wine Press NW to state: "Craig Mitrakul is one of the up and coming winemaking stars in Washington."
