Fly-in to Airfield Estates new tasting room in Woodinville!!! Passport to Woodinville is an annual event held each Spring that provides a great opportunity to taste new releases, meet the winemakers, and enjoy a wide range of Washington wines. The video clip above is a quick glimpse at the recent 2010 Passport Weekend.
Hurray! It’s in the bottle! And it is tasting better than ever! Below is some video footage of Airfield’s winemaker discussing the bottling of the 2009 Unoaked Chardonnay:
Today marks the start of Airfield’s 2008 grape harvest! Harvest is a little late this year due to our long winter and cool spring. As long as we don’t encounter damaging frosts over the next two months, we are confident that this will be a excellent vintage. We are tasting wonderful fruit flavors in the vineyards.
The first grapes off the vine this year were our Gewurztraminer. We have been growing this variety for about 25 years, but always selling the grapes to other wineries. The 2008 vintage will be the first Gewurztraminer wine that we produce at Airfield Estates.
