Spectacular Wineries of Washington book

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011

It’s been a whirlwind summer traveling throughout the state of Washington for a new wine book titled “Spectacular Wineries of Washington” due out next Spring. I’ve been fortunate to work in more depth with a few new clients pictured below:

Va Piano Vineyards, Walla Walla, Washington

My home base in Walla Walla for several trips the past few months – a private guest room on the top floor of Va Piano’s beautiful winery and estate vineyards in Walla Walla.

Winemaker Marcus Notaro, Cole Solare Winery, Red Mountain, Washington

Cole Solare, Red Mountain AVA, eastern Washington

Col Solare, a collaboration between Chateau Ste. Michelle and Italy’s famed winemaker, Marchese Piero Antinori, has one of the most distinctive winery buildings I’ve photographed. Looking forward to capturing their harvest in this spectacular space.

Chris & Gary Figgins, Leonetti Cellars & Figgins Family Estates, Walla Walla

Figgins Family Wine Estates, Walla Walla, Washington

I’ve photographed the Figgins Family on multiple occasions, and am looking forward to shadowing the team during harvest.

Paul Golitzin, Quilceda Creek, Washington

Quilceda Creek has a brand new winery building, and I look forward to capturing their first harvest in their elegant new facility.

Jarrod Boyle at Alexandria Nicole Cellar's spectacular Destiny Ridge Vineyards, Horse Heaven Hills, Washington

My favorite yoga pose - Thanks Jarrod for the great photo in your Destiny Ridge vineyard!

It’s tough to find time to balance in the flury of activities immediately before and during harvest – thanks to all the winemakers who have taken a break to join me in a few yoga poses in the vineyard and for making the the journey so enjoyable!
