DavenLore Winery

The name Daven Lore is a blend of the family names – Davenport and Taylor. We enhanced the "Lor" with an “e” to tell our story and the tale of our wines.
More than just carefully crafted, Daven Lore wines begin with hand harvested grapes and continue with personal efforts in every step of the process, from fermentation through bottling. Family owned and operated, Soil Scientist Joan Davenport and Winemaker Gordon Taylor produce ultra-premium wines at a modest price. Located in the Yakima Valley, Daven Lore is central to the vineyards that continue to make world-renowned Washington wines. Producing less than 2000 cases each year, Daven Lore specializes in blended red wines.
