Women For WineSense Seattle Invites You to Our
Annual Urban Winery Event with
Jody Elsom of Elsom Cellars
2960 4th Ave South
Seattle, Washington
Wednesday, March 13th, 2019 at 6:30pm
How did Woodinville native Jody Elsom end up founding Elsom Cellars in 2006? A move to San Francisco for a job in the construction industry allowed her to visit Sonoma and Napa wineries, also helping with harvest and bottling. After coming home and thinking about what she wanted to do next, Jody remembered sitting in the sun overlooking a California vineyard, "I'd always sit there with my glass of wine trying to figure out 'Well, what do I want to do?' and that whole vision of just that tranquility, peace, living off the land and making something, that's what I want, and to create that experience for people," She began her training at WSU, and after graduation began making wine at home, forming a cooperative with friends to share equipment. At Elsom Cellars, her focus is on full-bodied Washington reds. Her personal favorite, Malbec, is featured both as a single varietal wine and in some of her Rhone and Bordeaux-inspired blends. Jody will pair a selection of her wines with our dinner.
