This is a fairly decent winery (Washington wines are some of the very best in the country), located on the northern side of the Columbia River. Apart from the opportunity to sample wine in a fantastic setting, this is a truly unique location because of its Stonehenge Memorial, which is a replica (but fully built) of Stonehenge, which serves as a war memorial, as a reminder that as they say: “humanity is still being sacrificed to the god of war.”
Coming from Washington (especially if you are on a wine tour that might include Walla Walla - about which I must write one day) a stop at Maryhill would work as a gateway to the Columbia Gorge on a trip through some very interesting towns, beautiful waterfalls (Multnomah especially), and great bicycle rides), on the way to Portland in Oregon - a fantastic destination in its own right.
The strangeness of the Stonehenge Memorial doesn't really dissipate, even as you enjoy the wine, and if you're lucky a performance in the amphitheatre, or a visit to the attached Art Museum.
If heading on to Portland, try stopping at Hood River (home to Full Sail Brewery and lots of parasailing), or Stevenson - nestled in temperate forest. It's all very beautiful.
