Airfield Estates is a family owned and operated winery and vineyard situated in the heart of the Yakima Valley - Washington State's oldest established AVA. For four generations, our family has been farming in this region. We planted our first wine grapes in 1968, and today, our estate vineyard spans 830 acres and includes over 20 different varietals.
The experience and knowledge gained over the years has helped us craft well-balanced wines reflecting great varietal expression and quality. As the name suggests, Airfield Estates has ties to aviation. Prior to our farming days, a portion of our property operated as a training base for hundreds of Army Air Corps pilots during World War II.

Founders
Report
H. Lloyd Miller was a successful businessman and pioneer of the Yakima Valley. Noting the potential for the valley to become one of the nation's leading agricultural producers, he began acquiring dry farmland with the hopes that someday it would have access to water. Eventually, H. Lloyd became the chairman of the Roza Irrigation Canal Board, and he saw the project through to its completion in 1951.
Aviation Heritage
Report
With the onset of World War II, the Olympia Air Transport Corporation began looking to lease land in the Yakima Valley to establish a civilian flight school. H. Lloyd Miller, the founder of our family estate and a successful realtor and landowner, knew that it would be several years before the arrival of irrigation water on his farmland so he signed a lease agreement for a portion of his property.
