Westport Winery’s Shorebird Chardonnay earned a Double Gold Medal at the 2015 Denver International Wine Competition held on June 6 and 7 in Broomfield, Colorado. Grapes for this wine were harvested from Connor-Lee Vineyard near Othello, Washington. A portion of the proceeds from this wine are donated to the Grays Harbor Audubon Society.
Swimmer’s Petite Sirah earned a Gold Medal at this event. The grapes used to craft this wine were grown at Jones Vineyard in Washington’s Wahluke Slope AVA. Some proceeds from this wine are contributed to Grays Harbor Children’s Advocacy Center.
Both Captain Grays Gewurztraminer and Night Watch, a chocolate Merlot blend, earned Silver Medals. These wines benefit the Grays Harbor Symphony and Harbors Home Health and Hospice, respectively.
