A Farewell Tasting with Andrew Rich

Included with daily rotating $30 flight

Andrew Rich left a very successful career as magazine editor, after deciding he wanted to change his lifestyle and jump into wine with “both feet”. He enrolled into wine school, located in Burgundy, France, where there was only one other American student, who happened to be from Oregon. Years later, it was their friendship that ultimately prompted Andrew to migrate North, after he had worked five vintages with Randall Grahm, owner and winemaker at Bonny Doon Vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

Passionate about Rhone style varietals, Andrew was determined to produce these warmer climate driven wines, even though he chose to live in Oregon. Starting his own label Andrew Rich Vintner in 1994, he quickly became a noted pioneer at creating Rhone-driven wines with a Northwest spin. He continues to work with some of the most respected vineyards in the Columbia Valley of Washington. Of course, he makes Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley too…

Over the years, Andrew has created a serious following for his wines. Andrew’s wines are distinctive, innovative, exciting and always a treat to pull from the cellar to share with friends and family. That’s only if you feel like sharing the wine!
