Cox Creates Gateway

To Washington’s Wine

Cox Canyon is the first vineyard from the west as you enter into Washington’s Wine Country from the Seattle area. Cox Canyon Vineyards draws on Gary R. Cox’s many years of experience as a Plant & Soil Scientist. He obtained his Bachelor of Science from Southern Illinois University in Plant & Soil Science, his Master of Science from Washington State University in Agronomy & Soils, and is a Master Watershed Steward interested in balancing water rights for both fisheries and agriculture.

Gary is an avid fly-fisherman and enjoys the quality waters of the Yakima River located just across from the vineyard. As a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager he is dedicated to minimizing the impact of chemical usage on the environment.

Cox is currently an Instructor of Vineyard & Winery Technology at Yakima Valley Community College and a Scientist at the Hanford Nuclear Site.
