A Latin Proverb...


"It is well to remember that there are five reasons for drinking: the arrival of a friend; 

one's present or future thirst; the excellence of the wine; or any other reason."

Easy Spring in Washington...



So far, Mother Nature has smiled kindly on Washington wine grape growers during the 2014 season.
With Mother’s Day being the traditional end of frost season, grape growers across the vast Columbia Valley said they sailed through without issue.
“We are set up for success,” said Jim Holmes, owner of Ciel du Cheval on Red Mountain. “We’re feeling great, and everything is on track.”
Paul Champoux, owner of Champoux Vineyards in the Horse Heaven Hills, said he turned on his wind machines twice the entire spring, when temperatures dropped to about 30 degrees.
“Everything looks fantastic,” he told Great Northwest Wine. “Springtime has been a cakewalk. Thank you, Mother Nature.”
