Discovering the wine region of Idaho

Idaho is the third largest state in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, bordered by the famous wine states of Oregon and Washington. Currently, Idaho is better known for its potatoes than for its wine. However, with the rapid growth of the wine business and the quality of the wines produced here in recent decades, its profile is rising. Idaho's different mesoClimates allow for many different styles of wine to be produced.

Initially, the state was much better known for its cool-climate wines, produced from Grape varieties such as Riesling (including Icewine), Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Climate change has led to a greater emphasis on red wines, including the more structured Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Tempranillo and Malbec. Idaho's wine production is primarily in the southwest, near the Oregon border. Some is in the northern Part of the state, the panhandle, on the border with Washington, and around Boise in south-central Idaho.
