Winery Insurance in Washington

As a winery or vineyard owner, you know there is much more to the process of producing terrific wine than simply growing grapes. Large or small, there is a unique risk for insuring a vineyard or winery and vintners require customized insurance solutions. At Filer Insurance Agency, we understand wine. We live in the community that is home to over 90 wineries and tasting rooms. While most Washington wineries grow their grapes east of the mountains near the Columbia Valley, many will then transfer their product west of the Cascade Mountains to go to market. Our winery program is in partnership with some of the top insurance companies in the country. We’ve established great programs with regional partners as well; partners who understand your local needs and whose programs will help your winery in Washington be protected throughout the year, both in the season and while your wine is aging.

Some Optional Coverages Include:

Wine Leakage* – includes property held by the insured in trust or on consignment or on joint account belonging to others.
Unexpected Wine Oxidization* – finished or in process if caused by failure of corks, synthetic corks or screw tops and results in volatile acidity that exceeds the federal standard.
