Tacoma native and recent Walla Walla transplant. I was drawn here by the sun, the juice, and my best friend who already moved back west. 

Q&A

DRINK OF CHOICE

It depends on the mood but absolutely no new country.

MUSIC OF CHOICE

It depends on the mood but absolutely no new country.

HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE YOURSELF AS A WINE TASTER?

Overly eager. Whatever I’m discerning, it’s usually off the finish.

ON A SCALE OF 1-10 HOW LIKELY ARE YOU TO CLIMB THE HILL NEXT TO THE TASTING ROOM?

10.

IF YOU WERE AN ECHOLANDS WINE, WHICH ONE WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?

2020 Seven Hills Red Blend: Old vines. Rich red hue. Thick legs. Look like a fruit bomb but there’s more to me.

WHAT IS YOUR SKI/SNOWBOARDING PROWESS?

None. I really enjoyed the two times I went snowboarding, but my favorite mountain activity is hot toddies in a warm cabin.
