When we received the spring issue of Washington Tasting Room we were delighted to see our general manager and one of the company’s co-owners, Carrie Roberts, featured on the cover. The article about the daughters of the Washington wine industry only captures a glimpse of Carrie’s contributions to this family enterprise. Carrie is indeed the heart and the soul of Westport Winery. This is long overdue recognition for her tireless efforts and important role in the business.
