The Rawn family has worked this stretch of the Yakima Valley since 1951, when brothers Matthew and Patrick Rawn's grandfather, Phil Schmidt, established Schmidt Orchards. Growing up on the farm, the brothers helped their uncle, Ron Schmidt, plant the 26-acre Copeland Vineyard in 2000, crushed their first vintage two years later, and bought the operation outright in 2006. They named the winery for Mt. Adams and Mt. Rainier, the two peaks visible from the vineyard rows — a nod to the land itself rather than any marketing conceit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatthew and Patrick still farm every vine themselves, from Copeland Vineyard out to the Schmidt, Marcella and Portteus sites they now also draw from. In 2020 they became the first growers in Washington certified through R.U.L.E.S. for Sustainable Winegrowing, and the estate is also Salmon-Safe certified and a member of Sustainable WA — credentials earned rather than claimed. Their approach is as unpretentious as their roots: \"It is our job to make wine. It's in our best interest to make good wine,\" as the brothers put it, and that philosophy runs through a range built for real, everyday drinking rather than the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Two Mountain Winery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57915753234819,"sku":"TMN10523","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0272\/9843\/1058\/files\/TwoMountainLemberger.png?v=1777385717","url":"https:\/\/www.perfectcellar.com\/products\/two-mountain-lemberger-copeland-vineyard-2023","provider":"Perfect Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
