Walla Walla Spring Release

As we prepare for the third annual WineSquire Walla Walla Spring Release Tour, we thought it would be fun to look back at the last two events.  Here are some pictures from last year, which included stops at Kiona, Kestler, Alexandria Nicole, Waterbrook, Walla Walla Vintners, Dunham, Isenhower, Rulo, Flying Trout, Vapiano, Waters, K, and DaMA.

We're back in Walla Walla April 30-May 2nd to see what 2010 has to offer!
