Naked Winery is a Family Owned Winery
The Barringer and Michalec families hooked up at the turn of the century and have since formed Naked Winery. Our Washington based boutique winery is located in Wishram while our company headquarters is in Hood River, Oregon about 60 miles east of Portland on the Columbia River separating Oregon and Washington State.
Naked Winery produces Washington and Oregon Wines
The grapes for our red varietals (Syrah, Cabernet, Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, Barbera and Merlot) are orgasmically grown in the hot and dry Apple Gate and Columbia Valley regions of Oregon and Washington respectively. While our other varietals (Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling) benefit from the cool pacific marine layers of the Willamette and Illinois Valley’s to produce subtle and complex wines. The vines in Washington’s Columbia Valley struggle with just enough drip irrigated water to produce exceptional fruit for our big bold Chardonnays.
