Michelle had Two Vines break away from Columbia Crest in 2013, so I guess this was from their first stand alone offering. They're trucking up their red grapes from CA if I recall, but their whites are Washington I believe.

Jenise wrote:Tom, no he's talking about a winery in Anderson Valley, California, who specialize in exceptional and nervy white wines like Gewurz. I'm sure they're the most Alsatian of any California (or Washington) producers who try their hand at this grape. They also make pinot noir but that's really beside the point.

I didn't mean they were worthless. But the topic was Alsatian whites....
