nown for its breathtaking wilderness and, perhaps more famously, for its potatoes, Idaho is home to a fast-growing wine industry and fantastic wines. Nestled between the Rocky Mountains and the Snake River, Idaho wine regions nurture the grapes with a moderate climate, limited precipitation, and a consistent growing season, which adds complexity to the grapes. The characteristically cold winters allow vines to go dormant gradually while ridding the plants of bugs and discouraging disease. A combination of cold nights and hot days serves to balance acids and sugars. The limited amount of rainfall allows growers to control water through irrigation. Idaho is known for growing and producing classic varieties including Syrah, Merlot, Riesling and Chardonnay, along with more adventurous wines such as Tempranillo and Malbec. IdahoWines.org 3
