Our time in Washington was nearing it’s end. We travelled from Walla Walla west to the Yakima Valley once again to visit with Kerry Shiels of Cote Bonneville. We met her for an interview at their tasting room in Sunnyside.
Kerry is a wealth of information on the area and the science behind the vineyard and winemaking. Kerry has an engineering degree, which she put to use with Fiat in Italy, before returning to get a degree in Viticulture and Enology and then taking over as winemaker. She is smart and intense. A woman who made her way in the male dominated engineering field.
We made a stop to visit Co at his tasting room at Co Dinn Cellars. He also has a renovated historic building in Sunnyside. His winery and tasting room are in the old Water Works. It’s a gorgeous space.
