Pronounced “szz-eh-jee”; the moment
of perfect alignment between three celestial bodies,
such as that occurring during a total solar eclipse.
“I have witnessed several total
solar eclipses and have always been awestruck
by this spectacular sight and experience. I am thrilled to have found this fun and unique
name for my winery.
The name not only reflects my personal,
lifelong interest in space & astronomy, but
the concept of alignment is fundamental in our
approach to winemaking – different varietals
and diverse vineyards blended together in perfect
alignment.”

In December of 2005, we moved into our new winery facility just a few blocks from our original (tiny) location and still at the Walla Walla airport. Our new space gives us triple the production area (almost 3000 sq. ft.) and an additional 1500 square feet of dedicated space for our tasting room, office, laboratory and kitchen. We do everything from "crush to bottle" at this facility. Please visit us soon!
Our address: 405 E. Boeing Avenue (at the corner of Boeing & "D" Street).

We believe that the best wines are crafted
through the meticulous management of small vineyard
blocks within a variety of sites offering diverse
terroir. Our strategy is to purchase all of our
grapes by the acre, rather than by the ton, thereby
having the greatest control and flexibility as
to how our fruit is grown. By working with vineyards
across multiple appellations we are also better
protected from adverse weather occurrences that
may impact a particular area during any harvest.
We also believe in long-term relationships with
growers committed to sustainable, environmentally-friendly
vineyard practices.

We care for our wines as if they were our own
children, nurturing their development without
interfering in their freedom of expression. |
