The Allure of the Exotic<br />
Be one of the first to hear what’s next for Washington’s varietal scene. Washington<br />
produces over 40 different grape varieties, and growers and winemakers continue<br />
to explore and push the boundaries each year. Here you’ll taste a selection from<br />
some of the state’s less common grape varieties and see what has winemakers so<br />
excited about branching into new territory.<br />
