Frichette — Attraction in Benton City

Visiting Frichette Winery, owned by the wonderful Greg and Shay Frichette, is always an unforgettable experience! Tucked away in the stunning Red Mountain region, this winery is a true testament to the passion and dedication of winemaking.

From the moment you arrive, you'll feel like family. Greg and Shay are incredibly welcoming and enthusiastic about their craft. They share stories about their journey and the inspiration behind each wine. Their personal touch to every interaction makes the tasting experience feel unique and intimate. Kathy, their wine club concierge, equally loves visiting with guests and sharing her passion for fine wines!

The wines at Frichette Winery are a true testament to the craft of winemaking. Their bold reds, in particular, are a delight to the senses. Each sip reflects the unique terroir of the area and the meticulous care and love put into every bottle.

The setting is equally breathtaking, with panoramic views of the vineyards that create the perfect backdrop for an afternoon of wine tasting. We love relaxing outdoors, soaking in the scenery, or relaxing in their tasting room's oversized, comfy chairs on a chilly day.

If you're looking for an authentic wine-tasting experience where you will become family, look no further than Frichette Winery. Greg and Shay have created a gem that captures the heart and soul of Red...

This vineyard is not only gorgeous, but comes with exceptional service and a homely vibe. I have been to many wineries and vineyards but haven’t come cross one where the winemakers comes sit and chats with you like you are a guest at their homes visiting. The vibe here is amazing and this place has been decorated very thoughtful. We didn’t have a reservation so showed up and was happily seated with the option of inside or out. We went with outside as it was a gorgeous day and who would say no to drinking wine in a vineyard! They have a variety of tasting options, from Rośe- white- reds. Rośe was very refreshing, Chardonnay, I’m not a fan but this one wasn’t as tart as the rest of the ones I’ve tasted. Let’s talk reds 🤤 nothing disappointed!! Malbec, Merlot and Cab each had their own flavors from light to bold to heavy. We ended up purchasing one of each as we were unable to make a decision. There is no rush to leave, you are not on a time crunch, they treat you like family here. You can sit and drink by bottle or glass, walk the vineyards and it’s dog friendly. You can bring your old wine bags from any winery and they reuse it. We were surprised when our wine was given to us in a different wineries bag. Loved this concepts of reusing. Inside the tasting room is gorgeous. Definitely coming...

Shae & Greg Frichette of Frischette Red Mountain Winery in Richland, WA - helped make our 20 year Anniversary a remarkable memory. Shae’s hospitality is 2nd to none and it was wonderful learning about their journey together to start their winery adventure at Red Mountain

The wine is amazing. We were especially drawn to their new line of delicious Sashay wines and the incredibly powerful label by a local artist. We love that it both celebrates women and Shae as a black women winemaker.

Greg & Shae have created a wonderful experience - we highly encourage everyone to visit their winery, enjoy their wines and participate in making dreams come true.

Thank you both and your team for such a wonderful and magical day. And Shae the rest of the wine auction package you put together was absolutely amazing. You have a gift for planning for sure. It was an anniversary to always remember. Thank you! Grateful &...
