Tim,
Good to hear from you. I always enjoy your comments on Andy’s blog. Thanks for sharing your Caterina experience. While, unfortunately, it wasn’t a positive one, I think it’s exactly the kind of information that other potential visitors should know. Cheers!

Interesting note about Caterina! Last time we were there, the place was filled with what appeared to be under-age people waiting for a concert to begin. We tried a few of their wines, at $8 to $10 a glass during the “concert” (which was mainly a bunch of quite young guitarists whining about their parents and the evils of George Bush!), and were completely underwhelmed. The bottle prices, as I recall, were in the $30 to $40 range. I would never pay that kind of money for their wines, although I am sure they have their fans. For my money, no thanks…

You’re welcome, Jill. We are glad that Townshend participated in the tasting. Keep up the good work!

Kate and Heath,
Thanks for your comments. We had a wonderful time in Spokane. We’ll have to check out Whitestone the next time we’re in the area. Cheers!

Caterina’s wines aren’t very good anyway. You got to try the best of Spokane wineries – Townshend, Barrister, and Robert Karl. The whole tasting sounds outstanding!
