Pontin del Roza Winery Claimed

Pontin del Roza translates roughly in Italian to mean “Pontin (Ponteen) of the Roza”. A pioneering spirit brought some of the Pontin family to the Yakima Valley over 85 years ago. Nesto Pontin’s father, Angelo, immigrated to the Valley planting terraced vineyards just as his family had done for centuries in Italy. Today Pontin del Roza is a thriving estate winery with over 100 acres of 10 varietals including: Riesling, Malbec, Syrah, Dolcetto, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère and Petit Verdot. With production at around 4,500 cases per year, many grapes are still sold to other wine producers, as we desire to remain a small, family winery.
