From their winery in Walla Walla to their tasting room in Woodinville, Ed Dudley and his team of Patit Creek Cellars demonstrate their devotion to artisan wine. They carefully select and squish grapes to produce their flagship style of Cabernet Sauvignon, which carefully balances savory and fruit profiles, and the Merlot, which pins aromas of black cherry and chocolate with undertones of dried herbs. They also fill glasses with white varieties that include Chardonnay and a dry Riesling.

In their winery’s tasting room, which boasts a breezy covered patio, patrons sample new releases and sip wines by the glass when not creating symphonies with the glasses’ rims.
