“To let you know how deeply spoiled we are here in the Northwest, I recently moderated a seminar where we poured the Bainbridge Vineyards Siegerrebe. We had a Master Sommelier on the panel; it was his first time tasting the variety. We can taste it right here in our backyard anytime we like. The winery also grows varieties like Dunkelfelder and Garanoir that I didn’t know existed in the Northwest. They are true pioneers and have been since their inception.
... People increasingly crave experiences and authenticity. Bainbridge Vineyards has both in abundance. It’s a must stop.
