Chandler Reach Estate Winery
Deeply rooted in Washington’s Yakima Valley AVA, Chandler Reach Winery represents two generations of family committed to producing exceptional wines from our estate vineyard. Derived from inspiration that owner, Len Parris, found on a 1997 trip to Italy, our winery was established to cultivate authentic and memorable experiences, reminiscent of those we enjoyed in Italy; and to share our wine the Tuscan way, with good friends and family. Over two decades later, our inspiration, dedication and passion for our craft are evident in each vintage.
Located in Benton City, our 42-acre vineyard overlooks Red Mountain and grows premium grape varietals including Sangiovese, Barbera, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. Our Italian-inspired Villa opened in 2005 and is home to our tasting room and event facility. In 2014 we opened a second tasting room in the heart of Woodinville’s Hollywood District, capturing the essence of our estate winery, with greater accessibility from the Seattle area.
Christmas Presence
After years of anticipation, Chandler Reach Winery proudly
presents our special Christmas label, Christmas Presence ―
a heartfelt tribute to our founding partner, Lenita Jane Parris.
Jane's contributions to our family winery and her love for the holidays inspired this exceptional red wine.
Featuring the majestic red cardinal of her North Carolina heritage, this wine embodies Jane's spirit. We invite our followers, wine club members, and family friends to savor the essence of Christmas Presence and the legacy it carries.
In honor of Jane's gracious style and caring nature, a significant portion of the proceeds of Christmas Presence will be donated to the Marsha Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research as well as the Boys and Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties. We invite you to make a direct donation in her name and memory. Your support means the world to us. Thank you for celebrating Jane's enduring love and the causes close to her heart.
We are proud to announce, for a limited time during the holiday season, Christmas Presence will be available for purchase in our tasting rooms and online shop beginning Saturday, November 18th 2023.
To make each purchase a true gift, every bottle of Christmas Presence will be elegantly gift boxed and include a handmade holiday card by North Carolina artist and family friend, June Everette, to add a touch of sophistication to your holiday gift giving. Shipping is available to 41 states with guaranteed Christmas delivery for all orders made before December 12th 2023.
