STEELHEAD WINES
Great Wine for a Greener World
The Steelhead brand began as a tribute to Quivira's commitment to restoring the steelhead and Coho salmon habitat in Wine Creek, a tributary of the Dry Creek River that runs through its estate. Working with state and university organizations as well as Trout Unlimited, Quivira's restoration included rebuilding spawning grounds within the creek bed that have led to the return of Steelhead trout during the spring. The successful restoration of this historic watershed has inspired neighboring landowners to do the same.
This project has led to a unique partnership between Trout Unlimited, Quivira Vineyards and Steelhead Wines. The result? Steelhead, the first wine brand dedicated to fisheries conservation. Steelhead honors the trout that return to Wine and Dry Creeks and contribute to their health and recovery. Proceeds from every bottle of Steelhead sold fund TU's work and restoration projects.
