Idaho Grown: Boise Wineries and Shops

When you're looking at Boise homes for sale, there's a lot to take in. The beautiful neighborhoods, strong local economy, and terrific dining will keep your calendar full. But there's one untold story of Idaho that's only just starting to get attention: Its vibrant local wine scene.

Our real estate agents are proud to share that after many years of hard work, the Boise Valley area has recently received its wine appellation designation. This means Boise Valley joins the Napa Valley and a host of other world-famous locales in being a legally determined and protected wine region.

Such a designation can only be conferred when recognized wine experts determine the flavor of the local wine grapes is truly distinct and unique to the area's soil. This has led to an explosion of dryer vintages in the Boise Valley, while sweeter vintages incorporate quality grapes from elsewhere.

However you look at it, Boise's wine scene is on its way to a whole new level!

And there are plenty of ways to enjoy it right now with Boise wineries and shops selling the fantastic locally made wine:

• Cinder Wines – 107 East 44th Street, Garden City, ID 83714
  Dedicated to the prospect that the Snake River Valley will be "America's Next Great Wine Region," Cinder Wines welcomes reservations or walk-ins at its tasting room.
