Additional Information

Gifford Hirlinger is a small family owned operation that started way back in 2001. It was in that year that the Berghan family purchased and began Berghan Vineyards in the heart of the Walla Walla Valley. It started out simply enough, growing grapes and selling them to local wineries. But after a couple of years they decided to complicate their lives by getting into the winemaking aspect of the business… resulting in Gifford Hirlinger. We know it’s a long and hard to pronounce name, but it actually means something to us! We thought our family was new to the Walla Walla area, but as it turns out we have somewhat of a history here. On both sides of the Berghan family, we have a direct ancestor who was born in Walla Walla when their families crossed the country in covered wagons in the mid 1800’s. So, Gifford and Hirlinger were the last names of those relatives on the paternal and maternal sides respectively.

Events

Come join us for another great Spring Release Weekend full of purple smiles! This year we will be releasing our first Estate Pinot Gris and Malbec! Both are very limited production wines (48 and 121 cases) so they won't last long. In addition, we will be pouring the 2005 Cab Sauv, Merlot, Stateline Red, and the last of the 2006 L.V. And last, but not least, we'll be giving you a taste of things to come with a barrel sample of the 2007 Cabernet Sauvingnon! We'll also have special hours for the weekend... Thurs. 11:00 - 5:00 Fri. 11:00 - 6:00 Sat. 10:00 - 6:00 Sun. 10:00 - 4:00
