Genoa Cellars

Open: Year-Round

Owners and wine enthusiasts Derek Berger and Scott Heinrich began making wine together in 2004.   Derek and Scott first began making beer together in the late 80's while attending Engineering school in Bozeman MT which later evolved into a mutual passion for winetasting in the 90's.  From 1998 to 2001, Scott operated a winetasting web site called TasteofWine.com which provided wine-tasting packages to help people learn about different regions and varietals.    Mutual winetasting passion evolved into a winemaking hobby run from Scott's garage starting in 2004 and made its way to Woodinville in 2011.  

Derek and Scott primarily focus on Super-Tuscan-style wines made from Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot from the very best vineyards in Washington state located in regions such as Wahluke Slope and Red Mountain.
