What area are you most passionate about?
As a winemaker in Woodinville, WA, my passion lies in the art of crafting wines that reflect the unique terroir of this incredible region. Over the past 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with local vineyards and fine-tuning the balance between nature and technique to create wines that are expressive and full of character. What truly excites me is the process of bringing out the essence of each grape variety and watching it evolve through every stage, from harvest to bottling. The ability to create wines that not only tell the story of the land but also bring people joy and connection is incredibly fulfilling.
What challenge excites you most?
Making wine in Woodinville presents its own set of challenges and opportunities, and I find great satisfaction in embracing those while striving to maintain environmentally responsible practices. I work with a small number of carefully-selected vineyards to respect the land and our craft. It’s that constant pursuit of improvement and the dedication to producing the best expression of Washington wines that keeps me inspired every day.
