Our winery is nestled among the big boys in Woodinville, around the corner from St. Michelle, Columbia, and Redhook Brewery. While we reside in the same neighborhood, this is no corporate enterprise. Not even close. You won’t find a mission statement on a wall, or a gift shop filled with branded merchandise - only wine, and the equipment and people dedicated to making it great and getting it to our table or yours.
Jody’s a travelling spirit. If you ask her what inspires her, you get a million glimpses of the world she’s seen. This old world teaches us a lot, if we slow down and let it.
And, if we sit across a table from a stranger with a couple glasses of great wine, before long, it’s surprising how much we all share. Wine gathers its taste from everything it encounters. The earth. The air. Everything leaves a mark. So do people.
Jody's passion for wine began in the Napa Valley and further explored through numerous experiences in the vineyards and wineries throughout Italy and France. Formally educated as one of the first graduates from WSU's extension studies of Enology. Jody has a passion for developing wines that best represent the possibilities for Washington Wines.
