Farming: practicing sustainable

Master Sommelier Greg Harrington walked away from a storied career in some of the finest restaurants in America to become a winemaker. He and his wife Pam moved from NYC to Walla Walla, Washington in 2005 to open Gramercy Cellars, and theyve never looked back. While Gramercy primarily produces wines from Rhone grapes, Greg couldnt resist trying his hand at Cabernet Sauvignon in a region where it thrives. The Columbia Valley cuve is a supremely balanced red wine ideally suited for cellaring if youd like, but not in need of time if you want it for dinner tonight! Chocolate, raspberry, and mushrooms combine expertly with precise tannins on the finish.

Pairings: Roasted eggplant with pine nuts and lentils
