WA vs The World: A Regional Showdown

Over time, certain wine regions have broken through to become world class. Names like Bordeaux, Piedmont, Rioja and Napa Valley are synonymous with greatness. And now it’s Washington’s turn. After nearly 50+ years of experimentation, effort, and critical success – many of our state’s appellations have established the right to go toe to toe with the world’s great wine regions. In this fun, spirited blind tasting, we’ll pit some of Washington’s premier wines up against benchmark wines from around the world. Taste alongside the winemakers themselves, and decide for yourself who comes out on top.
