Jim, I work for myself...my winery is called Trust. Crest is about 90 minutes from Walla Walla in the middle of nowhere in a town called Patterson. Fun Fact number #1: Columbia Crest and Chateau Michelle (and the other 8 or so wineries in the fold) are owned by US Tobacco makers of Skoal!

Sign up for a mailer from K and L out of CA. I always see lots of reasonably priced Bordeaux wines in their mailers, some of which they directly import.

BTW, for two years I worked under the former director of winemaking at Chateau LaTour in Bordeaux...now I can make a 100 point wine anytime I want!! (that's a joke)

I'm very impressed with what I read about your winery, and I will try to get some of your wines. - They don't seem to be available in our area, but I'll try to order some. If you apprenticed with the Latour Chateaux people, you no doubt have an appreciation for some of the French Bordeaux wines. - By the way, if you ever try to duplicate one of the Ch Latours there in Washington State, please put my name on the order list.

I was interested in your program of aging good Cabernets. I'll sign up for your mailing list, but I was trying to get a general idea of typical prices.

  Jim,
  Sorry, that's not me..I'm trustcellars.com in Walla Walla. I actually have no desire to create a First growth wine in Washington. I don't believe too much in the international winemaking style.....I'd rather develop my own style that's suited to the fruit that we have here which is immensely different than in France or Spain or Australia, etc..

    What's your promotional code? I want to order some wine but I'm always looking for a deal. Seeing how we're one of the few on this forum, help a brother out.
    
    What would you compare your dessert wine to?
