About Öömrang:
In 2016, a serendipitous moment at a Thanksgiving gathering in Stanwood, Washington, transformed Edmund and Christine Stoecklein's basement winemaking hobby into a viticultural journey. The winery was officially incorporated in December 2016 and by 2017, the Stoeckleins planted their first two varietals, formally launching their winemaking venture. Thus, the family operation emerged, passionately crafting high-end, Washington-grown, German white wine varietals within an unparalleled micro-climate.
Today, Öömrang is an 85-acre farm thriving in a micro-climate that is a rarity in Washington State, benefiting from the sheltering presence of the mountains. The Stoeckleins pride themselves on delivering the highest quality of authentic German white wine using a blend of sustainable, innovative, and traditional practices.
