Ruby Magdalena Vineyards

is a family-owned boutique winery founded by Marty and Ryan Johnson, whose passion for wine and sustainable farming inspired them to establish their estate vineyard in Washington’s Rattlesnake Hills AVA. The first vines were planted in 2007, and the winery was officially licensed in 2014 with a clear mission to produce handcrafted estate wines from Spanish grape varieties. Named in honor of Marty’s mother, Ruby Magdalena Johnson, the vineyard reflects her enduring spirit, strong work ethic, and encouragement. Farming every vine themselves, the Johnsons embrace ecological regeneration, minimal-intervention winemaking, and meticulous attention to detail, producing fewer than 450 cases annually from their intimate 1.5-acre estate vineyard.

Visitors can enjoy an exceptional portfolio featuring estate-grown Tempranillo, Graciano, Garnacha Tinta Rosé, Orange Muscat dessert wine, and future releases including Albariño and Mazuelo. Guided tastings and vineyard tours provide insight into the winery’s Spanish varietal focus, sustainable vineyard practices, and handcrafted production methods. Every tasting highlights expressive wines celebrated for vibrant fruit, balance, elegance, and outstanding food-pairing versatility.

Beyond its wines, Ruby Magdalena Vineyards offers private vineyard tours, personalized hospitality, and memorable tasting experiences that celebrate sustainable farming and Spanish winemaking traditions. Every visit reflects the family’s dedication to craftsmanship, environmental stewardship, and producing distinctive Washington estate wines with enduring character.
