CRP Design commissioned Steven Noble to customize the new illustrated label for Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars. Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars is one of Washington State’s largest and premier Pinot Noir producers with 67 aces of land. In 1999, a Frenchman and direct descendant of The Rothschild Family, studied the lay of the land, the soils and sun hours offered in the area and came upon this property to plant a Pinot Noir Vineyard and try his hand at winemaking. The birth of Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars had begun.
Challenger Ridge Vineyard & Cellars is located 60 miles Northeast of Seattle, on the banks of the Skagit River, in the foothills of the majestic North Cascade Mountain Range. The original farm was homesteaded over 100 years ago and crossed over into this century as a family farm. The farmhouse has been updated but kept intact and is our tasting room today.
This custom woodcut illustration below depicts that specific homestead sitting along the Skagit river with the Cascades in the background.
