Discover the Beauty and Unique Terroir of Idaho

Bitner Vineyards’ estate-grown, handcrafted premium wines reflect vines that have been tended carefully with a passion for, the knowledge of, and a dedication to the rich, beautiful earth of the Snake River Valley. We hold ourselves to the highest standards and respect our workers and our community. We are the first vineyard in Idaho that is sustainable LIVE certified, Salmon-Safe certified, and a promoter of bee-friendly farming practices.
