Join us as we welcome Stephanie and Cole Sisson, founders of the ‘The Orcas Project” for their first event in Bellingham featuring their special micro-production wines. We will serve a 5-course menu paired to their delectable wines. Cole, a native of Orcas Island, and his wife Stephanie collaborate with acclaimed winemakers and vineyards around Washington and Oregon to produce small private projects of 50-150 cases. The wines are only available at their tasting room on Orcas and a handful of restaurants in the San Juan Islands.
These food-friendly wines feature illustrations by Orcas Island Artist Carlin Hayworth. Each animal on the label corresponds to a different winemaker in the project. At this point there are five winemakers working with the project.
Previously, Cole worked as a Sommelier at restaurants including RN74 Seattle and Michael Mina at the Bellagio Resort in Las Vegas and Stephanie worked in importing and distribution with a focus on wine training and education.
