Cellar Crawl 25 BOTTLES OF WINE, AS NOTED

Cellar Crawl was formed when five winemakers and friends chose to join forces to learn from each other’s successes and failures, share winemaking secrets, and tackle the challenges together. It started with a casual trip to each other’s cellars. A journey to Burgundy sealed the friendships. Recognizing that their winemaking styles were quite different even after a decade of traveling and tasting together, they started to wonder, “What would happen if we shared our grapes? If we made wine from the same five lots of Pinot Noir?” In 2006 they made it happen. The Cellar Crawl was born. The winemakers Terry and Ted Casteel, Bethel Heights Vineyard Steve Doerner, Cristom Vineyards Ken Wright, Ken Wright Cellars Lynn Penner-Ash, Penner-Ash Wine Cellars Laurent Montalieu, Solena Cellars 20% of the profit from this sale will be donated to the Parkinson Center of Oregon at OHSU in honor of Terry Casteel, who is battling Parkinson’s Disease
