Who will be the next Cayuse Vineyards, Col Solare, Leonetti Cellar or Woodward Canyon Winery? With a new winery license bonded every 10 days in our state, and incredible interest in the world-class quality of Washington State grapes, there are stunning new talents staking a claim and creating their own legacy.
