History
Saviah Cellars is a family-owned and operated artisan winery located in the acclaimed Walla Walla Valley of southeastern Washington. The winery specializes in producing small quantities of ultra-premium wines that showcase the remarkable qualities of Washington's finest vineyards. Founded in 2000, the winery's first vintage was only 300 cases. Today, the winery produces approximately 4,200 cases of wine per year. Winemaker Richard Funk and his wife Anita, both natives of Montana, moved to Walla Walla in 1991. Richard's father, Michael Funk and his wife Kay, are co-owners of Saviah Cellars and still reside in Montana. The name Saviah is a family name from Anita's great-grandmother, a schoolteacher, artist and author, who settled in western Montana in the early 1900s.
