A brief history
Named after the volcanic CINDER that is beneath many of the vineyards we work with, CINDER Wines has been hailed as one of the West’s Best urban wineries by Sunset Magazine.
In 2006 we decided that the Snake River Valley AVA would be where our adventure would take root. Here are some short stories from our winemaker Melanie Krause about her early adventures and the story that sparked Cinder.
