Friends,

It is my great pleasure to reveal our Owen Bargreen 2024 Winery Of The Year. There were several challengers for the top position this year including Quilceda Creek, Devil Proof, Horsepower and several others. This was a very difficult decision to choose a winner with such excellent and storied finalists.

The winner is Cayuse Vineyards, who produced several perfect wines and arguably the finest new Rose wine in North America. Cayuse Vineyards is the brainchild of eminent vigneron Christophe Baron. His wines, particularly his Syrahs and Grenache wines, sourced from his cobblestone-laden vineyards, are some of the best known new world Rhone-inspired wines in the world.

Congratulations to Cayuse Vineyards and their success!
