Gard Estate Wines

About Gård Estate Wines

Gård Estate Wines was founded in 2006 by Josh and Lisa Lawrence to showcase the character of their family's estate vineyards. The name Gård means "farm," a nod to the Lawrence family's Scandinavian heritage and generations of farming. Gård is one of Washington's relatively uncommon 100% estate wineries: the family farms the grapes used in its wines at Lawrence Vineyards, giving the team direct stewardship from vineyard through bottle.

Head Winemaker and Viticulturist Matías Kúsulas leads a wide-ranging wine program that spans both reds and whites. Gård's current portfolio includes wines such as Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Cabernet Franc on the red side, alongside Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Vermentino, Franc Blanc and other white and limited-production wines. The winery's current trade library documents more than 20 wines across multiple varieties and styles.

Gård's established Woodinville tasting room operates at The Junction near the Warehouse District. A separate Gård tasting room is planned for The Yard at Harvest. Because the Harvest-specific opening pour list has not yet been published, MHL treats Gård's broad red-and-white producer portfolio separately from what will ultimately be confirmed as currently pouring at the Harvest location.

Planning Your Visit

The planned Harvest tasting room will add Gård's estate-grown Washington wine program to The Yard at Harvest. Until Gård publishes location-specific opening details and a Harvest pour list, visitors seeking the winery's currently operating Woodinville tasting experience should use the established Woodinville location at The Junction.
