Cascade Cliffs Winery and
Winemaker, Bob Lorkowski


Friday, March 7, 
5 pm to 7 pm


Nestled in the heart and on the shores of the Columbia River Gorge Scenic Area, Cascade Cliffs began plantings in 1986. Since then the vineyard has grown varietals such as Barbera, Nebbiolo, Petite Sirah, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Symphony, among others. The soil, climate and altitude is exceptional for these varietals.
Bob Lorkowski/Winemaker-
Bob began making wine during his childhood when his parents would fill the backseat of the family car with fruit

from the local farmer's market and take it home to make wine.  "My grandfather was a moonshiner. Wine was drank freely and I was fascinated by fermentation," says Lorkowski.  Since 1990 Bob has worked for Paul Thomas, Cavatappi in Kirkland and Chinook in Prosser.
Lorkoski and partners purchased the winery in 1997 and have increased production from 2 to nearly 4 thousand cases focusing on piedmont varietals.
