Collection of Fine Wines

Three bottles of top notch, well-aged red wine for auction. The first bottle has a local connection: Pasek Cellars' whimsically named 2015 "Call Me a Cab" made from Walla Walla sourced grapes, a stunner of a big red. The second bottle is 2015 Cabernet made by an up-and-coming small Napa winery called Scattered Peaks-- reviews and tasting notes highly praised this vintage. Lastly, an Owen Roe 2012 red wine mix from the Yakima Valley featuring Merlot, Cab. Franc., Cab Sauv. and Malbec-- this is a super tasty Bordeaux type blend.

Where Winter Finds Me
Maggie Wilder is a painter, filmmaker and printmaker has lived in or near La Conner for almost 50 years.  She celebrates the glow in all things. The image in these woodblock prints all began as paintings. She wanted to translate the birds and their habitat into the high contrast experience of block printing. Each print is hand printed in editions of sixty on handmade Kita kata rice paper. Each is 11x8.5” and framed in simple glass with clips.
