Scoria Winery

Scoria Winery is a boutique winery located in Caldwell, Idaho, within the Snake River Valley AVA. The winery is known for its unique terroir-driven wines, which showcase the region's volcanic soils and climate. Scoria Vineyards' signature varietals include Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec, with a focus on low-yielding, small-berry clusters that produce intense flavors. The winery's 6.5-acre Malbec block is particularly notable for its inky purple color, while the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot block sits perched atop a 40-foot cliff overlooking an extinct volcanic vent. The winery's vineyard practices prioritize estate-grown grapes, with a focus on sustainable farming methods that allow for proper ripening of long-hanging grape varieties like Petit Verdot. The winery's wines are aged longer than most to bring out their nuances, and the team is particularly proud of its Reserves program. Scoria Winery offers two club options: the Volcanic Vent Club, which grants access to all Estate wines and priority entry to the annual Volcanic Vent Dinner, and the Tenth & Main Club, which offers a more limited selection but with greater frequency (six releases annually). Both clubs offer customer choice and discounts on case purchases.
