Women In Wine

How ironic is it that March is Women’s History Month AND Washington Wine Month !? They are both topics we love! Sip and Ship supports and brings these endeavors together by highlighting two of our favorite local winemakers who also happen to be badass women and entrepreneurs.

Fifth generation Walla Walla winemaker Anna Schaefer influences every aspect of the wine making process of AMaurice Cellars. From her 20 something beginnings, Anna’s first vintage was featured on the 2006 French Laundry Wine List and today her artwork can be seen on two of our favorite estate varietals; Syrah, “Fred,” and Malbec, “Amparo.” Sip and Ship is proud to feature Anna and AMaurice Cellars - her values of curiosity, quality and creativity not only make amazing wine but solid business sense.

Mother of two and Seattle SoDo's only female winemaker Jody Elsom of Elsom Cellars . Jody focuses on partnering with local farmers throughout Washington to help them supplement and sustain their family farms, where she harvests a variety of small batch grape vineyards to create her unique wine flavor profiles. Elsom Cellars recent new releases Mourvedre and Grenache are Sip and Ship top crew picks!

We invite you to learn more about these amazing women and enjoy their spectacular Washington wines! The idea of sharing a story about a woman in history who has influenced your life (with or without a glass of wine) is a great conversation starter at any dinner table or water cooler.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
