Tickets for the annual summer concert series are on sale on the Maryhill website. Prices range from $49 to $59 for general admission on the lawn, $75 to $85 for reserved ground seats, $95 to $105 for premium reserved, and $150 for rail seating on the terrace with dinner and wine service.

Maryhill winery also has live music on the terrace this summer from 1-5 pm weekends.

It's not difficult to visit Maryhill Winery, it is an easy 100 mile drive along I-84 from Portland, Oregon. For me the drive from the Tri-Cities, Washington is almost a two hour drive along highway 14; easy to navigate and just twisty enough to make it fun.

Check the Maryhill website to purchase tickets.

About Maryhill Winery

In 1999, Craig and Vicki Leuthold established Maryhill Winery. In 2000, the Leutholds began construction on their winery just west of Maryhill Museum on a bluff overlooking Gunkel Vineyard, one of the state’s oldest and most established vineyard sites.

In May 2001, Maryhill Winery opened its doors. With a lot of hard work and determination, the Leutholds achieved their dream of creating a true destination winery with a 3,000-square-foot tasting room, a beautiful covered arbor, picnic grounds and an adjacent 4,000 seat amphitheater that hosts a world-class summer concert series. The winery has grown from a modest 4,300 case production in 1999 to more than 80,000 cases today.

Named “2009 Washington Winery of the Year” by Wine Press Northwest, Maryhill produces 19 varietals and a total of 27 award-winning wines. The winery welcomes more than 75,000 visitors per year, has a 900+ member wine club and is distributed across the U.S.

The Columbia Gorge

The Columbia Gorge was carved out by epic glacial floods of 15,000 years ago. Here the Cascade Mountains restrict the Columbia River to a narrow passage. The strong currents of the Columbia River energize the power grid, while the persistent winds funneling down the Gorge turn sleek, modern wind turbines, supplying additional energy to the grid.

Situated in the heart of this destination is Maryhill Winery. A winery with some of the most inspiring views and wines. Maryhill Winery is situated in the "sweet spot" of the Columbia Gorge for growing grapes.

The area has diverse micro-climates because it's situated at the transition point between the dry, warm side of eastern Washington and the cool, wet side of western Oregon. The Columbia Gorge AVA overlaps both Washington and Oregon. It was my unexpected pleasure to enjoy a wine tasting at Maryhill Winery featuring the wines of AniChe Cellars and The Pines 1852 winery. This place is truly populated by people with heart and passion. Where the joy of a life's work melds so well with natures power and beauty. A destination where one can savor the view as well as the fruit of the harvest with good friends.

Visit Maryhill Winery and the Columbia Gorge this summer for the live music, the amazing views and the delicious wines. And take time to consider the place; pause, reflect and feel slightly humbled.

Where to Stay in the Columbia Gorge

My trip to Maryhill Winery last year included a nights stay in the Dalles, Oregon at the Celilo Inn. Celilo Inn is just minutes from Maryhill Winery, local attractions and recreation activities.

The Celilo Inn is a recently renovated Motel and features 46 rooms and suites. Located on the bluffs of the Dalles, Oregon. It has an inspiring view of the Columbia River, the Bridge of the Gods and the Dalles Dam. They have a seasonal outdoor pool and a patio where you can relax by the fire as you watch the sun set.

The facility was clean and well appointed. My bed was very comfortable, I slept well after a long day of walking and wine tasting. The Celilo Inn also has a house red wine (Sangiovese) which you can purchase at the front desk and enjoy on their patio or in your room. I took a bottle home and thoroughly enjoyed it with pizza. That's a recommendation.
