Very nice article, thanks for sharing. Andy Perdue is a fantastic reporter and writer. He was head editor at a Tricities newspaper, forgot the name, until a couple of years ago when he went freelance. Glad he has the Seattle Times byline these days. On the topic, I had forgotten, or never knew, Wade Wolfe was a CSM alum. The others I knew about, some I think are the salt of the earth, Dr. Wolfe, Kay Simon and Clay Mackey, Damon Lamonde. Some others I've met and think their winemaking ego has gone haywire (really just one of the others mentioned). There are so many connections to CSM/CC on the vineyard/farming side too since they still buy MOST of the fruit in the state, from Yakima, H3, Wahluke, all over really. One of the winemakers/wineries they didn't mention is Ron Bunnell, who makes good wines at Bunnell Family and RiverAerie, and consults for some other labels, but maybe he was CC and not CSM.
