Walla Walla Vintners was the appellation’s eighth winery, founded in 1995 and over the next two decades built a reputation for elegant and age-worthy wines. Since 2017, Walla Walla Vintners has been owned, managed, and cared for by Scott and Nici Haladay. They are devoted to the crafting of distinctive and delicious wines with acclaimed Winemaker, Derrek Vipond.
It is always the goal for Walla Walla Vintners to make the highest quality decisions at each stage of farming, winemaking, sustainability, hospitality, and everything in between. Scott and Nici are excited to share the Walla Walla Vintners experience with all who visit.
Derrek Vipond joined the Walla Walla Vintners team in 2019. His skills and experience have refined the winery’s portfolio and growing practices, with an emphasis on quality sourcing and sustainability. After completing his education with a degree from Oregon State University in Fermentation Science, Derrek followed harvests around the world gaining a deep understanding of a variety of winemaking techniques and stylistic choices that have influenced and inspired him.
Derrek has had the privilege of working with some of the most renowned winemakers and has joined their ranks with his own style, receiving a 95-Point Wine, a Top 100 Wine, and many editors’ choice on his first vintage at Walla Walla Vintners. While his wines are acclaimed, his focus is always on taste, texture, and making the best representation of Washington Wine, staying true to himself and the house style at Walla Walla Vintners.
