Benton City, WA (April 24, 2025) — As Hamilton Cellars prepares to conclude its celebrated chapter on Red Mountain, the winery is proud to announce the Visionary Vintage Wine Sale, a meaningful farewell event with lasting impact. Proceeds from the sale of Hamilton’s remaining wine inventory will benefit the Stacie & Russ Hamilton Foundation at Washington State University Tri-Cities, supporting scholarships and academic excellence for students and faculty in viticulture, business, and healthcare.
This one-of-a-kind wine sale offers a chance to enjoy acclaimed Red Mountain wines while contributing directly to the education of Washington’s next generation of leaders, caregivers, and entrepreneurs. All inventory will be sold by the case only, and transactions must be made in-person during designated pick-up days at the winery.
“This sale is not just a way to celebrate my parent’s legacy—it’s a way to invest in the future,” said Craig Hamilton, son of Stacie and Russ Hamilton. “We’re proud to support WSU Tri-Cities and the students and faculty who represent the next wave of innovation and leadership.”
