Syncline Winery - Lyle, Washington

Your H. T.

Syncline Winery is a beautiful spot with a stunning garden and knowledgeable staff. Their red wines are exceptional, and we loved taking a bottle (or two) to enjoy on the beach during our camping trip. The tasting prices are a bit on the higher end, but it's well worth the visit for the experience and quality of wine.

Had the pleasure to visit this vineyard on a sunny Easter Sunday, and I became a club member immediately.
Todays tasting was all reds and each one was unique .Very impressive ! Cody did a great job explaining each one and taking care of us .

A beautiful location and tasty wines. The staff is very knowledgeable about their wines. Wine is a bit more spendy here than other places in the area.

We visited Syncline Winery today and had a wonderful time. The wine is delicious, there was live music from a little 3 piece band called Willie & Nelson playing everything from Fleetwood Mac to Chris Stapleton music, and the gardens are beautiful. One thing I appreciated was that with our wine tasting flight the pours were not skimpy like many other wineries where they only give a small taste.
Thank you Syncline for a nice afternoon!

What a beautiful gem of a winery! Secluded, thoughtful, beautiful property doing good work. Reservations required, so plan ahead. Also most of the seating is outdoors near one of many fire pits so dress warm in all but summer months.

Thank You to everyone at Syncline for a thoroughly delightful evening last Saturday, the 8th of October. Lauren was great!

Everyone was so friendly. Soul Prophet was outstanding. (We did our best to clap as loud as we could.)

We found a wonderful spot in the garden and loved sharing it with bees, moths, hummingbirds close; acorn woodpeckers in the nearby oaks.

Your attention to detail and accommodations were just wonderful; we are so glad that the weather made for a joyful, (Busy!!! for you folks) evening for all.

We will be back!

Update for January 24th, 2025: We enjoyed the featured wines in the Classic Tasting. Our host, Tiffany, made our visit a delightful experience. Relaxing at a cozy outdoor seating area with a warming fire, we learned more about the featured wines, comparisons with other Syncline wines, winemaker philosophy and vineyard terroir. We had plenty of time to ourselves interspersed with our conversation about Syncline vineyard and nearby regional variations in terroir.

Wine tasting was a unique experience. We were seated at a table in a beautiful garden and the host would walk by us every 10 minutes to pour us the next wine. Out of the 6 wines we tasted, there were only 2 that we really liked. Tasting were $25 and tasting fee waved of you buy 4 bottles. Bottles were $30-65 each. Not dog friendly. Overall a nice experience but not for the price. Outside food allowed

This winery is a true gem! offering an unparalleled experience that blends exceptional wines, knowledgeable friendly staff, and an enchanting setting. Nestled in the picturesque gorge it's a true standout among its peers.

The staff exudes warmth and expertise. Radiating a genuine passion for the craft of winemaking and Viticulture. Their knowledge extends beyond the bottles themselves. Delving into the intricate details of biodynamic farming practices and the unique terroir of the Columbia River Gorge. A story that even seasoned industry professionals like myself found enlightening.

The wines showcase unique varietals. Many you may have never heard of. The owners James and Poppy are passionate about creating wines that help bring out the best qualities in the grapes. This is a testament to the winery's unwavering pursuit of excellence. The PicPoul was one of my favorites. It has lively citrus notes and a crisp clean finish that you'll want to sip on a patio all summer long.

The winery's grounds are enchanting. A beautiful garden oasis nestled between vineyards and tucked away from the strong gorge winds.

I'd recommend securing a reservation for the full experience. They do take walk-ins but you may miss a spot at a tasting table as they can fill up fast. You can always go to enjoy a glass or bottle in the cozy Adorandac chairs. Add on a charcuterie board and you'll have a magic picnic experience.

A must-visit destination for those seeking a tranquil escape into the world of viticulture while visiting the gorge.
