[25-Oct-2001] Saintpaulia Vintners annual Open House event is next weekend, 3,4-Nov, noon-5pm. The winery is housed along with Shinoda Floral, so this is an open house for both. This is possibly the only open house where you can taste wine and view thousands of poinsettias in bloom! (Remember, this is a Seattle area [not far from Woodinville -- directions on website above] winery -- no excuses about the long drive!) Says winemaker Paul Shinoda: This year we will be releasing the 1997 Barrel Select Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon and 2000 Yakima Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Hope to see you!
