The Location
Situated in the foothills of the Horse Heaven Hills, the winery overlooks the beautiful Yakima Valley near the intersection of Hwy. 22 and Richards Rd.
Just 2.5 miles southwest of the town of Prosser, WA, the panoramic views span the Cascade Mountains, through the irrigated desert and onto the distant Rattlesnake Mountain. Truly a magnificent site and sight!
The Lore
The name Daven Lore is a blend of the family names – Davenport and Taylor. We enhanced the "Lor" with an “e” to tell our story and the tale of our wines.
More than just carefully crafted, Daven Lore wines begin with hand harvested grapes and continue with personal efforts in every step of the process, from fermentation through bottling. Family owned and operated, Soil Scientist Joan Davenport and Winemaker Gordon Taylor produce ultra-premium wines at a modest price. Located in the Yakima Valley, Daven Lore is central to the vineyards that continue to make world-renowned Washington wines. Producing less than 2000 cases each year, Daven Lore specializes in blended red wines.
