Kana
Winery said this week, that enologist Tony Lombardo has been hired to make
wines for Kana at their Yakima winery. Before joining Kana in 2012, Tony worked
in Walla Walla with vintner Serge LaVille at Spring Valley Vineyard and served
as interim winemaker at Walla Walla’s, Ash Hollow Estate Vineyards & Winery.
Tony also interned at Long Shadows Vintners in Walla Walla while studying
enology. “Kana Winery has developed a loyal following because our wines are
made with some of the best fruit Washington State has to offer, the wines are also
food friendly and moderately priced, said winery owner, Dr. Palmer Wright. With
Tony’s winemaking ability and direction Kana Winery will strive to continue a tradition
of small production, award
winning wines.”
Dr. Wright is investing further in
the future of Kana Winery by expanding retail presence in downtown Yakima. The
Kana tasting room, located in the 82 year old art-deco Larson Building in downtown,
was one of the first valley wineries to call town-center home. This coincided
with the beginning of the currently on-going revitalization of downtown Yakima.
Today, the Upper Yakima Valley is home to over 10+ wineries and
a popular wine touring destination in its own right. By summer 2013, Kana will
have added to their current retail foot print: expanding the tasting bar,
adding additional bistro seating, event space and an a la carte food menu.
About Kana Winery: Crafting award winning, Rhone varietal wines in Yakima, WA
since 2004. 1600 cases made yearly.
400 cases of Katie Mae, a popular, off-dry Riesling also
produced.
