Rosé in the Lake Chelan Valley | Taste of the Valley
Discover why rosé has become one of the signature wines of Lake Chelan.
Why Rosé Loves Lake Chelan
With over 300 days of sunshine, cool evenings, and vineyards surrounding one of America’s most beautiful lakes, the Lake Chelan Valley has become one of Washington’s premier destinations for elegant rosé wines. Winemakers throughout Chelan and Manson produce styles ranging from crisp Provençal-inspired rosés to fruit-forward, vibrant bottlings perfect for afternoons on the patio.
Whether you’re celebrating with friends, enjoying a romantic weekend, or planning a girls’ getaway, a chilled glass of rosé simply feels like summer in Chelan.
