Wine center focusing on wine from Red Mountain

Wines from the Red Mountain American viticultural area are the focus this month at the Walter Clore Wine and Culinary Center in Prosser.

Cabernet and other heat-loving grapes are the key products of the AVA, said center experts. That means lush, jammy, fruit-forward wines that benefit from hot weather. The area also is known for well-regarded vineyards.

Wines from Red Mountain will be available for a $5 tasting fee. The center, open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, also offers light food items throughout the week and an expanded dining menu on Friday and weekends from noon to 4 p.m.
