To say that Idaho has some beautiful landscapes would be a huge understatement. However, few people realize that Idaho is a grape-growing powerhouse, or that our wine industry is booming – naturally acidic soil, the product of a volcanic past, makes for delightfully complex flavors! Fortunately, our sprawling vineyards are also often sitting next to some gorgeous tasting rooms.
Located in the heart of the Palouse in North-Central Idaho, the Colter’s Creek Estate is isolated from both Moscow and Lewiston by the rolling hills, but the combination vineyard, winery, tasting room, and restaurant makes it an ideal day trip destination – and the perfect place to sample some delicious award-winning Idaho classics.
His is most renowned for a single epic story of survival. While trapping along the Missouri River, John Colter was met by a band of Blackfeet warriors, stripped naked, and forced to flee for his life. After seeking refuge from his trackers under a beaver dam, surviving on breadroot alone, and spending 7 days naked in the blistering sun, Colter arrived at Lisa’s Fort some 300 miles later. He had endured the unimaginable, and his legend lives on today.
