Drink Wine, Save Salmon!
Duke’s Seafood Restaurants, along with Damsel Cellars and Train Front Man, Pat Monahan, launched Up River Red® in the Spring of 2023 to help protect and restore Pacific Northwest wild salmon populations. Up River Red® is sourced from Candy Mountain, one of Washington’s most exciting AVAs (American Viticultural Area).
Up River White® was launched in the Spring of 2024 with fruit sourced from Horse Heaven Hills AVA. Both wines are sold at all six of Duke’s Seafood locations, and at special events at Duke’s Dockside. An inaugural fundraising event to save wild salmon was held in the spring of 2023 sponsored by Train, Damsel Cellars, and Duke’s Seafood and featuring the 2021 vintage of Up River Red®.
Collectively, the group donates proceeds from the wine and events to a select group of non-profit organizations that focus on Pacific Northwest wild salmon populations.
