About Col Solare Winery:

This partnership has grown into the creation of premium Washington wine using Italian expertise. Over time, the partnership flourished, and in 2024, Marchesi Antinori acquired full ownership of Col Solare, solidifying their commitment to producing world-class wines in the Columbia Valley.
