Ava Summary

AI generated

The duo's passion for winemaking was sparked during a trip to Spain, where they envisioned creating wines that maximize every aspect of the traditional wine-making process. Chris, who earned a degree in Viticulture & Enology and Spanish from Washington State University, has gained experience through internships at Casa Lapostolle in Chile and Domaine Lejeune Winery in France. The winery's focus is on attention to detail, from vine to bottle, with practices such as hand-sorting grapes, cold soaking for color density, and fermenting with whole berries. Their wines include Viognier, Chardonnay, Rose', Dakota Red (a blend of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon), Cabernet Franc, and Syrah, which is co-fermented with whole cluster Viognier. The winery's commitment to quality has earned them a gold medal at the 2016 Seattle Wine Awards. Chris Daniel Winery offers wine tastings and sales through their website or by contacting them directly.
