Gougér Cellars offers internationally awarded wines that are made on-site and wonderful food from our full restaurant. We have seating in our converted firehouse dining area and on our covered back patio with fire tables and heaters. 

 Winemaker and Owner, Gary Gougér, started his winemaking journey after a career as a Pharmacist and Optometrist. Early success (an international gold medal)  in amateur wine  making with a friend led to achieving a degree in Enology (winemaking) from the University of Adelaide, Australia in 2005. He opened the winery in downtown Vancouver in 2009 and in 2012 moved to the current location in the old Ridgefield Firehouse.   He has been enjoying making wine and serving up his culinary creations for customers to enjoy ever since. 

We  have entered our wines in major national and international wine competitions and we are pleased to have received so many medals over the years. Our 2019 Sangiovese received a Silver Medal in the San Francisco International Wine Competition in 2021. Other recent awards fron this compeition include GOLD MEDALS for our Sparkling Rose, 2012 Petite Syrah, and 2014 Zinfandel. We also received a DOUBLE GOLD for our 2015 Syrah. The San Francisco Chronicle wine competition (ovr 7,000 wines) awarded a  BEST IN CLASS for our 2015 Chapter 2 Red Blend.  (Sorry, sold out but try our latest Chapter). While the awards are great, what's most important is producing wines that our customers enjoy.
